    Default Skidmore in Ebony

    I really liked Zomax's post of "Wosty in Gembok" and the comments added to it. It got me tossing around ideas related to straight scales v/s curved and their relationship to the spine shape. I liked the shape of the scales that came with the Skidmore blade but they had been added by someone and were to short. The toe barely missed the pin and went between the wedge and the scale. [This latest version ended up on the long side!] I couldn't decide between flat or curved so I did both. I look forward to your comments.

    Thanks

    Tim

    Looks great. Blade cleaned up very nicely. I'm digging the scales. Keep up the good work.

    I like the match. The scales and blade seem made for each other

    Thats a good pairing of shapes. Keeps with the age of the blade.
