My first one. A Wade and Butcher meets the desert
I thought long and hard before posting this. You folks are a tough group but I like that. It makes you wanna do better and I'm not one to back down from the challenge of doing it better. So let me know what you think.
My before picture isn't so great but you can see the scales are broken and the blade has a fair amount of tarnish and as I'm finding out, if you have tarnish, you have pitting. The blade was hand sanded and the new scales were made from Mesquite and given about 12 coats of hand rubbed tung oil.
In the future I want to give the scales a more rounded and graceful appearance and I'm always working on making those pins look good.
It seems that guns and razors go well together here and I like that so I included that one picture. Tell me what you think.
