I have been wanting to make my own scales so I got this IXL blade on eBay to try my hand at it. The scales are cocobolo with laser etching I commissioned from a local awards shop. The wedge is camel bone. This is my absolute first attempt and I know there are some flaws but I am happy with it. I am pressed for time since I am moving in a few days but I am thinking maybe nickel rod instead of brass and smaller washers. Critiques and comments are welcome! Thanks!
