Just making stuff Sharp and Shiny up here in the Backwoods

Nice work. I assume this was a shorty save from a crack or chip? Boy, that one really has a cleaver look being short and that wide.

I have to assume the same Paul, it came to me, already shortened, however it was in full sized scales which makes them prone to slipping through and cutting ya
I am not sure, but I think my customer bought it like that..

Shorty's are a thing now in some of the FB groups, I actually have two of them in for restore at the moment
The second is a W&B that I just re-cut a Notch

I think they have become popular with people like myself that have facial hair to shave around... Who knows :shrug:

Damn that's nice Glen! I love those scales!

Very nice.!
Their practical, and fun to do, as well.

Good idea. Maybe I'll go snap some of mine. :roflmao

Seriously though, actually I've always wanted to try one but my only broken or chipped ones are broken at the heel end.
