Thread: Some New Camelthorn Scales

After seeing some scales made by gssixgun out of camelthorn (which were stunning) I just had to get some of that wood. I finally decided to cut some slabs and found a couple pieces that looked like they might turn out interesting. The grain structure of this wood is quite striking IMHO. The scales almost look as though they aren't even wood. I still have to put a finish on them, but wanted to share since I liked the look of them. Not really sure if I want to put them on the razor I was planning on. Might have to finish up a few other razors and see what one would look better in them.

You really brought out the various colors that the wood presents, Great job

Very interesting looking wood.

Very nice Sir !!....Where did you get this wood ?

Looks great. Like the two tone.

I have never even heard of that... Nice surprise.. Ver pretty, you are right it doesn't lok like wood at first glance.

I seen it on eBay and I had to have it.

Cool. That wood has the colour of a coticule!

Great looking wood. Now just to find the source of it.
