Damn you. I NEED a 15, stat! And I think I'll try some G-10 scales to go with it this time around.

yeah you do, this 15 is SAWEET! I am surprised by how much I like it really....I know I prefer it to the 16 so far LOL (gawd I hope Ethan don't read that)
 
Not much I could do to the FFG16 since it was already stripped and beautifully patina'ed so I stippled some black scales and put em on. I love the stippling, cant really use zytel without it anymore.

Nice! What do you do use to stipple your handles? I could never get it to look anything like that!
