The Wade was in "pretty good" shape. The scales were a little rough. Prodigy made "pretty good" into excellent. I wanted it tip top and tip top is what I got. The Frederick Reynolds was in dire need to the restoration. The scales were on their way out. The blade was stained and in need of honing. The box elder burl scales that Prodigy made are beautiful. The blade also looks brand new.

I forgot about the yin and yang wedge/scale theme. They really compliment each other.

Found some more pictures.


This was my first time using flame box elder burl, and I really, really like how it came out. Jealous they weren't for me haha.
