Hello All ,
As I,ve already written in a previous thread , I have just bought my first Buck knife , a 112 folder to add to my small collection of folders . I plan to re scale it using a nice quality burl wood which Ive got at home . If I can get hold of a reasonably priced Buck 113 Ranger Skinner I would like to re scale that also using the same wood to make a matching pair to complement each other . I have just come across some small pieces of Hickory that I bought from the US a number of years ago when I was making scandi knives that I never got to use !
As most of you Guys in the States probably know Hickory has a mix of Brown and creamy coloured grain . I was thinking of maybe using this to re scale the two knives . and would like to know if anyone on the forum has any photos of 110s / 112s / 113s with hickory scales to give me some idea of how they would look ?
Thanks
Mike
