    Absolutely. I had some excellent scales to work with. I do believe they were mass produced replacement scales in one case. Warped scale = warped mold

    Well, here's the Case/Genco Fluid Steel Shorty so far...........

    The end of the blade looks like a square point but it has a very slight radius to it. It centers perfectly. Now all I need to do is hone it & test drive 'er.........

    Yeah, everyone gets around to saving a butchered blade sooner or later!

    Well, I finally after about a month was able to complete my FBU WADE AND BUTCHER. I was able to clean up the blade and get a bevel started. I fixed the horn scales and soaked them in neatsfoot oil for about two days. Then buffed them out. All I need to do is pin it and hone it.Name: image.jpg Views: 144 Size: 19.0 KB before
