    Arrow Genuine, Rocky Mountain Elk Bone Scales !!!

    Yes you read it right, this project started back in the middle of August on this ATV ride... In fact if you look real close strapped under my pack on the back of the ATV is a mess of Elk leg bones and ribs that the wife found just before we took this

    YouTube - Riding the ATV


    I got the idea in my head that I was going to make scales outta them...Well the story started that Sunday night in chat, because I was talking about doing just that, and Bill/LegalBeagle jumped fast, and says "I want them" So after all this time and so much work prepping the bone, in fact prepping two sets of bone because I didn't like the first set of blanks... This is the final outcome a set of Genuine Rocky Mountain Elk Bone Scales for Bill's "Akatombow" Japanese frame-back razor...
    The wedge is re-con Amber and I used Tri-metal stacked washer and NiAg pins...
    I have never been so careful peening pins I can't even tell you how many hours of work are actually into these..
    Bill I hope you like them the project took long enough, the only thing that could have made this better is if one of us had hunted the Elk ourselves LMAO maybe next time...
