Yes! Igorded scales! Do you know if that's his actual name? It sure always seemed like a strange name to me either way. I'm not sure exactly what part of the world he's in though. But yea, he makes phenomenal scales!

I like that Grip of yours a lot! I've had 3 sets of igordeds. I had a 550BK/555BK matching pair in what Igor calls his Random Pattern in orange G10--similar to Anso's but more, well, random--which I sold as I couldn't bear to mark their blades up. I still have a set of his OD Micarta's on my 551SBK which has been a work knife for a long time and is plenty marked up.

IIRC Igor's last name is Dedzula and he is from Russia. His vendor page at the Big Auction Site has his work as "from Serbia" but his FB contact info is still listed as a .ru email, so my guess is he's still in Russia but is able to get his work out and payment in via Serbia. His Facebook page appears to be active, though his last post was some months ago. He had a forum thread here for quite a few years that is currently not open for for further replies.

His work is excellent, quite reasonably priced, and I had very some cordial communication with him when I custom ordered those orange scales some years back.
 
So.......speaking of Griptilians and after market scales, here's the small/large M390 Ritter pair I mentioned when I posted the 552 here yesterday. These are two of the four Grips I have with Wilkins scales. I got new pulls on both knives last night, but it's been raining and windy here all day as the storm creeps up the coast and I had to settle for some so-so pics downstairs in the sheetmetal shop.
