W&B in Buffalo Horn 6/8 with Red G10 Wedge
One I have been holding on to awhile now and just got the itch to put it together in this horn dress. Brass pins and red G10 wedge. The streaks aren't scuffs in the horn but white streaks running through it.

thanks all. I have been honing it now for the last hour setting the bevel. I did three hollow ground in that time... well worth it though.

I really like the shape of those scales up the toe end. Is that red wedge from the original scales? It would be cool if it were...not that it isn't cool now :-)
