    You could have said one of the pro's made them and I wouldn't have known the difference. Very nice job. You cleaned up that ole' razor rather well too!

    You're all nice to me, but there are still many defects, seen better when using the light box ...

    Very nice work. The style of the scales is in keeping with the style of the blade.

    Hmm...in my opinion, the scales look even better in the shots with the light box. Great job!

    Thanks for your comments.
    A second one today :
    Ern Ator
    Scales in buffalo black horn from same site, and a brass wedge.

    Before

    After
    in lightbox



    outdoor


    It's difficult to see the blue-gray reflections of horn in photographs.
    Much easier in reality.
