If you find some Arizona desert ironwood lying around and make scales out of that, I will be jealous. I'm into bocote right now. Also like cocobolo. Probably should use stabilized though. I wouldn't be surprised if jroden has a sweet BK2...
Have you tried calling Burl Source? I bet Mark might be able to get you custom sized scales. He's a really cool dude too.
Should be some wood scales in this thread: http://www.bladeforums.com/forums/s...difications...-The-Complete-Guide-(Hopefully)
I'd stop right there.
Looks great; you can only screw it up from here on in. I'm contemplating the same thing for my BK5. Once I get a BK5.
(Looks really, really good.)
looks great! that wood is really nice. very impressive
Those came out nice!
I have no patience for handle making for some reason. I always screw them up. Anybody who makes them has got mad skillz in my book. I cherish the one's I got from oregon fal'er that are on my bk6..
