Henckels 8/8 scallop back in Lacewood
I just got this one pinned for someone. It is an 8/8 Friodur square point scalloped back. I used three pins with a stainless spacer with brass and stainless blade bearings and a lacewood wedge. The scales are finished in epoxy resin. I used 1/16 brass bar stock for the pins with the pivot and wedge pins using stainless washers and the third pin with a smaller brass washer for accent. The stainless washers on the third pin look out of place. I went ahead and did a light buff/polish on it because it looked out of place in the scales without a little shine.
I still have to hone it but the similar 7/8 I did shaved wonderfully. The photos are mediocre, it will look much better when I get some sunlight but wanted to post a cursory photo.
