    Smile scales

    these are the scales for the next WB I decided to have a go at inlay so I did the co logo .Not bad for the first attempt as I had never tried it before.
    Anyway I spent hours doing it then put the blade on and discovered it is the wrong way round ,it is correct when the blade is on the bottom
    well you can all piss yourselves laughing I know I did after I calmed down ,I`m not doing it again.
    The wood is orange osage ,I should have done the B in MOP like the arrow so it stands out more .
    At least I have learned a few lessons from this ,one can only get better
    all the best
    Kind regards Peter

    I think they are looking great !

    Trial and error can really such sometimes. But the good side is you were able to learn from it.

    Very nice job. The wood looks great and the inlay looks to be very clean.

    I can't believe something that looks as good as that is being presented as a cock-up! Are you going to put them on anyway and claim you did it on purpose so it looks right when the razor's open?
