    Should I peen these?

    I would.

    You just have to be careful. Put the tiniest, I say the tiniest, chamfer on the edge of the hole you drill. You are only trying to kill the sharp edge. I use the chamfer tool with my fingers and only make about 1 1/2 revolutions to do it.

    Practice on some scrap first.


    Go look at Making Scales 104 on my blog. http://razortips.blogspot.com/

    None of those pins were peened with washers and the oosik is bone. I do the same thing to mother of pearl on knife scales.
