Joseph Elliot 6/8 in LVS Abalone Acrylic

Pretty nasty blade when I got it, cracked scales, etc.., cleaned it up and it went through some greaseless compounds. Left some pitting.

Scales, Laminated shell veneer, abalone, black backing, wedge dark emerald green swirl acrylic. Hard to tell but in certain lights a lot of green comes to view in these scales, and the wedge looks awesome with it.

nickel silver steel pins
SS #0 washers
inner brass #0wide washers

Love it. That looks like a different faux abalone than what you used on the Smith & Sons... gorgeous swirls and colors! Nice job!

EDIT: That's probably because it's real #$%@ing abalone. Apparently, I can't read.

that is one sweet job i like everything about it wish it was mine.

Wow, thats nice. i love the laminated look of the scales and that wedge is very cool.
G.

Nicely done,GJ!!!!:)

WOW that is really something.

That is sexy. I would love to know how you bevel your edges. I tried to use this material and ended up cracking it during pinning and never did make the beveled edge of the scales look right.
Again, really nice!

Fantastic job! I love the shape of the scales. They really do look great, & the blade suits them well.

What a great blade to work with... something about the shoulderless that is awesome... great work!

Very pretty scales. Great work on the blade.
