LOL... THANK YOU SO MUCH!
This is the 2nd one of these I have won and cleaned up.
Maybe I shouldn't post them so I have less competition for bidding...

I remember see that auction. I have no restoration skills, just appreciation skills. Youv'e nothing to fear from me.

Nicely done Chevhead. Scales go well with that blade. Two questions: 1) Did you trace/copy the original scales or use the scale template PDF? 2) Is it just me, or was that pivot pin "hole" kinda large? I may need to clean my glasses.......

I was wondering how the Koa would look. I think it is pretty good.?
Was considering going with blonde buffalo horn also.
Heck I can change it around if I wanted...LOL

"Maybe I shouldn't post them so I have less competition for bidding..."

At least till you get a seven day set!

Looks great in the KOA don't change it. Put the blonde Buffalo on the next blade. (well if you can out bid me :<0) as if I don't have a big enough pile to work on already. Nice work, be proud.

Hey MattCB... Thanks!

To answer your questions:
1) I traced the originals
2) I don't think it was TOO large. Might just look that way.
