Thread: I decided to make a new pair of scales for my old W. Greaves blade for now.

Thanks Tom. I was thinking the same. They really don't have to be polished just because they are in new scales.

very nice !! i love the shape of those scales ( and the blade but we already know that .lol ) something a bit straighter like your scales is what i was thinking on the Greaves stubtail i have the poll going on ...
the combo you have is great !!

Thanks my Greaves friend! I have some more already started a few months ago but haven't finished. I actually started on these months ago but they were on a different blade. I only had 1500 my highest grit sandpaper then but now I have 2000, 2500 & 3000 grit so I sanded them more & polished them. I have a Thomas Turner Everlasting blade similar but the Greaves looked a lot better in them so I went with 'em.

Real nice work on that Grievous blade Steve.
I like the spine notch half way up, adds a nice line break visually.
Nice choice of material and wedge shape for that blade.

Thanks Mike!
I could have gotten fancy with the wedge & made one out of brass but I already had one made from lead so I went with that.
Thank you too Slasher!

Nice job Steve
They match well

Very good looking! I have a Greaves out being rescaled right now in blonde horn and hope it looks as good as yours!

Thank you very much. I think they turned out good on there much better than the Thomas Turner Everlasting blade I have because of the blade geometry between the two.

Mike, you're so right about that spine notch or whatever they call that. I have rarely seen that on the Greaves blades. You actually don't see that too much but every now & then one will pop up. Thanks buddy!

You do very nice work, my friend
