I was wondering if there was any way to restore the black g10 scales to look like brand new again. They aren't deep scratches, just light scratch marks in various parts of the scales. Any help would be appreciated, thanks.
 
This would depend on how deep the scratches are and or skilled you are, you could try filling them in with some kind of epoxy then get some black rit dye.
 
it also depend on the "finish" of the scales, if it's flat peel ply textured scales like most spyderco folders you're pretty much screwed as you won't reproduce the peel ply pattern. if it polished, just repolish.
 
No it's the normal spyderco g10 scale. And when I was referring to "scratches" they're more like really really light scuff marks possibly from rubbing against something. You can only really see it when you hold it at an angle under a light. But I am really anal about things like that especially for a knife I will be collecting. If I can dye it I think that might be my best bet. I'll probably give that a shot.
