    Default Le Grelot "Lord Barber" in Desert Ironwood

    I just rescaled my 7/8 Le Grelot Lord Barber in Desert Ironwood. The wedge is black horn and the finish is CA glue. A couple of minor flaws in the finish, but I'm happy with how they came out. No work done to the blade. Final pic shows the previous scales. Thanks for looking and thanks for sharing all of your knowledge, tips and tricks!

    Nice job. The D.I. looks great.
