    I to like the taper on the square ended scales.

    Cheers,

    I really like the quality of your shaping. It is much harder than it looks to shape without bulges and rolls and to also keep your lines crisp and uniform like you've managed to do. Good on ya bud!

    Very much so! I am very new to wood work of any kind so it is a learning process that I make up as I go along. Keeping the edges uniform and not rounding them off is a difficult task to say the least! If I used sanders and other power tools it would make it much more simple. I however enjoy doing it all by hand.

    Thanks much gents!!

    These are badass man; and the fact that you do it by hand is even cooler. Great job, I admire your handy work!
