SSK in Bubunga.

**ironsidegnr** · 01-26-2013, 08:33 PM

Just finished a SSK for a friend.
The blade is just cleaned up, no fantastic finish.
The scales however, I think are beautiful!

They are Bubinga with 8 layers of CA.
Wedge is polished White tail deer antler.

Pins are brass with stacked brass and SS washers.

Take a look and let me know what you think.

I love wooden scales. Nice job on the them. Great grain and nice color.
And a personal thing but love the contrast on the spacer.
Nice work.

I've seen ALL your work and I like these scales the best so far, except for the ones you did out of blue/black g10 for my 15/16 clauss, because it's mine of course.
I'd like to take credit for how these turned out btw but you were the one that did the work so i'll let you have this one.

Fantastic work,You should try the waterfall Bubinga,I have enough scrap left over to make scales,If you want it PM me and we can work something out,gratis + shipping.
The material flashes gold in the sun,and has not even had the final polish yet.
