Polished up the blade and did Bone scales as the original ones were. The bone has so few pores it nearly resembles ivory. An original wedge completes the scales.

Wow. I am extremely jealous. I would be so proud to own that!
Looking good! That is some nice bone! It's really satisfying to bring those old guys back to life. You do a fantastic job of it. Kudos!
Very nice, i have to ask, do you grind hone wear out of spine, or lose it in the high polish, hard to see now, well done.
Lovely work
That a perfect example of successful restoration!
Thanks guys.
@ Grazor. I've never reground a blade, just sanding. The flat on the hone line is still there.
Excellent work!
Nicely done. Looks good as new and great to see an old bade like that back on the line :tu
