horn scales what size they should be?
hi everyone,
i recently found a blade without scales. it's in good condition so i thought to make it horn scales. yesterday i finished to cut and put them on the blade. this is my first scales which i did by myself so i could realize while i was stropping it that the scales were too thick (about 2 or 2,5mm). in the night i tried with sandpaper to get them thinner but i think it's still not so ok. (well better than earlier).
so i would like to ask what widness they should be and do you think it's possible to make them thinner without get them off (i mean while they are on the blade)?
thanks
