Well, there it is. My longest blade in the set - the Le Grelot, and the shortest - the No 42 3/8” that I used as the prototype.

Here’s a more dramatic illustration of the size...

Paper. “Need?” Lol, no need. But starting with 1/16 paper Macarta that I’m potholing, I’m kind of glad. That and it does add weight.

But to your question - I wanted it. Really, that’s it. No...

On my prototype, with my shortest blade:

Dang it! I’m just forward of the pin. Which kind of bites. Feels great though oddly enough.


I’m doing my longest blade now. That’ll...

This is a Prototype!

I can’t stress that enough. I banged this together to see if I liked how all the pieces came together with my shortest blade. Look, you might not see it, but the thing is...

UPDATE:

ok! All the materials are in, come hell or high water, the scales will be made in the next couple of weeks, or month at the most.

Right now it’s R&D time. Using a failed previous...

Nice! I bet it looks awesome. Like I said, I have quite a bit of it. I might consider it, but I'm really stuck on the liner being metal for now. Not sure why I'm so married to that idea other than...

Thanks for all the help gents. I pretty excited, in spite of the fact that I still don’t quite know what I’m going to do with respect to shape and style, I’ve got an order of supplies coming in...

They do it a lot with the multicolored G-10. No question. Especially on knives. Very grippy.

Lol! To make that work, you’d best be making more than 7 lol! It sure would be cool though.

I’ve got a butt-load of brass, so I’ll make it out of brass and simply sand down the end to fit it to...

Thanks for all the input guys! Its helpful. I’ve been watching all of spazola‘s videos trying to get some tips - but also because he’s seemingly the only person making textured scales. And that’s...

Thanks 742. All I know is it’ll take some time. But I’m really looking forward to it!

Interesting. I hear what you are saying, but 4 of those 7 razors need new scales no matter what.

The fact of the matter is, crappy scales made to save costs don’t survive real world use. That or...

You aren’t kidding lol!

You got a good eye man. Wholly Kaw! Yes, it’s a Swede with some ivory going on. Unfortunately, they aren’t in as good a shape as you think. They have cracks on the pivot pins.

I could fix it,...

I thought you did make scales. Ha.

Anyway, yea, I’ve got G-10. I bought a bunch for this project a while back. I used some of it on a knife of mine and discovered I don’t like it. It feels......

Hey gents. I could use some help. I’ve got 7 4/8’s that I intend to make matching scales for. Mostly because I want to, but also because on some of them, I have to. My Fili for example... scales so...
