    Wow, amazing job Glen, It never ceases to amaze me what you can do with a razor. If you don't mind my asking, what material are those scales?

    Thats a nice one for sure. I like those scales, kind of reminds me of the varying stages of making real caramel.

    Great work again Glen. The blade turned out beautiful and those original scales are stunning.
