    Default Joseph Rodgers "Star & Cross" with Black Bog Oak scales

    After some time I decide to restore this one which I plan to keep in my collection.
    Blade just needed light polishing (Mass) but I decide to replace faux ivory celluloid scales which I did not like with Black Bog Oak ones. Original lead wedge is kept and all together is pened with nickel-silver pins.







    ...and finally together with one of my Black Bog Oak brush
