G-10 Repair Job on Talon

[toothed]

I dropped my Talon and it hit the edge of a table. The the left side G-10 scale is now scuffed up and has tiny fiberglass splinters. I feel very uneasy having these little pricks digging into my fingers when I grip the knife. I'm worried that sandpapering could make matters worse. Can someone help with the fix for this problem. Thanks.

Sandpaper will take care of the problem, it will cut the loose fibers away. Hit it with some 220 grit and let the paper load with G-10 dust and when you are satisfied with the results, rub a little oil on it to match the colors back up.

Funny how things turn out. My unfounded fear is actually the solution. Thanks Rob, I respect your advice and will give it a go.
