    Default Wade & Butcher Chopper...

    Here is a W&B Chopper I won on ebay and just finished restoring. Kept the Buffalo Horn scales. Just cleaned up the blade, re-pinned it and put a little liquid Gold Leaf on the scales to bring out the lettering. I had to coat the gold leaf with some poly before I started with the CA. First picture is before the restoration.

    NICE !! Well done on saving the scales too. Love the gold accent.
