Wm Greaves Sheaf Works
Finally got some scales on this one it had a pair of celuloid scales that were too small on it when i found it. My first attempt at a set of scales for this one didn't go so well I had a nice set made up out of Arg. Lignum Vitae but must have made them too thin becuase i cracked em pinning the pivot.. rrrrrrrrrr Anyway this set is black mesquite with an olivewood wedge double pinned at the wedge end with flush pins the pivot washers were my first attempt at making my own domed washers. Thanks for looking!

Nice looking curves to the scales, and great use of the grain.

Very nice! I always say Greavses have Souls! Respectful way to treat a fine blade!
