    I want some opinions on a scale material for this blade, original, orgo with something more unique?

    For that blade I bet streaked black and white buffalo horn with a silver wedge would look great. Just my initial gut feeling.

    You've done a really nice job in polishing that blade - but you're making me nervous taking those pictures without any support.

    Brown, black or light horn always looks good on W&B and the darker colours were traditional as well. You might want to consider using the original wedge - I assume it's lead.

    Wow! that 17/16 is the find of the century that could look amazing once fully restored.
