    Default W&B in Green Canvas Micarta

    Picked up this W&B 6/8 half hollow a while ago , and had finally time to finish it recently.
    Scales are Green Canvas Micarta, brass/stainless/brass washers with brass pins. Wedge is black paper micarta.

    Very nice!

    The blade sort of looks like it's wearing a nice custom-fitted tweed jacket. A bit of casual elegance. I like the pin work too. Cool!

    I like that green micarta. The texture pops nicely. Very nice work on the pins, too! Gotta love those stacked washers...

    Congrats on a job well done. It all fits together nicely with a nice warm appeal.

    Wow. I don't normally like the look of micarta, but that green canvas is nice.

    Good work!
