I think it come up OK. Scales are a set of W&B Specials I had lying around. I painted some gold into them to make the wording stand out better. I'm happy that I was able to keep the wording etched into the blade.

Nice save. That is an interesting grind.

I like th grind on the blade too. She came up well, nicely done.

Stu

Nice save, John.
Now if I could just find a blade like that in 7/8th............mmmmmmmmmmm :hmmm:
