    Default Horn Scale Repair

    Just starting on this J. Allen & Sons Hand Forged wedge.

    I was planning to leave the blade in original tarnish but it's covered in micro pits. A job for later.

    The scales are in sorry shape but the color reminded me of some marine epoxy I had so the experiment begins.

    Will have to rinse & repeat to clean up some of the black oxidation from the repaired border - makes the repair obvious atm but I think the match is ok. The centre damage is less obvious at least

    Anyway a work in progress Fingers X'd I might save the scales.

    Opinions, abuse or critique is all welcome.

    The white gleam of swords, not the black ink of books, clears doubts and uncertainties and bleak outlooks.
