I did put some ca on a cut-off to see how it looked. Just waiting for it to dry to take a look. I'll do a test piece with the tru oil also when get a chance to pick some up.
So far this is what I have gotten done. Temped them together with micro fasteners to sand both sides to match. Then started with 100 grit sand paper to get the curvature of them to feel comfortable in the hand. Then progression sanded with 180/250/400/600/800/1500/2000 w/d sandpaper.

With the 2000 they almost shine on their own. Still have to make the tang covers, but that's a little more tedious project. So that will wait till another day.
