    Default W& B in Bone

    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.

    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.

    Thanks guys.
    @ Grazor. I've never reground a blade, just sanding. The flat on the hone line is still there.
