Just enough room to get it closed.
If I didn't mention it before, that smiling RanTanKaRus blade was a gift from Mike, Entropy 1049!
Seems it takes another Mike to help do it justice! :cool:
Mike, are those scales original? Very nice match up regardless.
:tu
No their from a gorgeous Torry blade I recently bought. But after a light cleaning, I realized two cracks in the blade, too deep to remove without destruction. So off came the scales...!!
They were originally a single pin/glued, built in wedge type. But I wiggled a SE blade in between the scales, and popped them apart, sanded off the built in wedge, drilled the wedge pin hole, and made a lead wedge for it instead.
Hate them glued type scales...!!!
Makes them look cheap IMO
Picked up a few things, today I found a few items at a indoor flea market.....a 11/16 Crown&Sword, and a cool DE travel razor. So I cleaned them up today as well, adding a fourth straight to the hone pile.
