8/8 Friodur Gabon Ebony Re-scale
This one was done for one one my friends here on SRP a Spanish Point Frodur 8/8 re-sacled in Gabon Ebony with solid brass hardware and vintage style pinning with a solid brass center pin....
I tried to use the Spanish point on the razor as a design guide for the scales themselves ..... It will be flying home to NY in the morning.....

Very nice. I like the double pins an the toe end and how the scales accent the Spanish point. Great work.

Good show!
I love gaboon ebony.
Do you find it smells vaguely like walnut when you work/sand it?

Great job, Glen - the pinning looks great and I really like the look of the butt end - a nice twist on what is quickly becoming the "classic re-scale shape." The center pin also adds a ton of class!
Way to go!
Mark
