Here is my second clean up and custom scales. The bone is giraffe and the spacer is Tortoise shell that I had from broken scales. The pins are one sided pre-made nickle with brass washers.

The blade is a Joseph Elliot's Best Silver Steel Full Hollow 13/16. I only did a glossy satin finish on this one, I think it looks better than a high polish mirror. The bone was a pain in the ass to work with and it stinks to high heaven. I think I will avoid this again for a little while. There are a couple finger prints on the blade.

BEFORE: both sides same condition. No scales.
