There were some black / brown spots on the back of the scales that i couldnt get off. it was almost like they were dirty or something. is there a way i can avoid or fix that?

I have heard some people use soap and water. When new I put Renaissance wax on all of mine
This does not get absorbed like mineral oil, etc.

Yes. I am a dirty dirty micarta loving skank. These are the ones at hand, can’t believe I missed this thread. Probably should have cleaned them up, but I didn’t. The red and black scales I made from red wranglers and black carhartts. The scales on the TOPS NATA are the reason I bought it.

I was so impressed with the burlap scales from RC Bladeworks on my Deka that I ordered one for my battle blue Eklipse. Absolutely enjoy the scales and think it looks pretty darn good on the Eklipse. The Deka scales already have some nice character after minimal handling and use. Also picked up a Hinderer merlot micarta scale off the exchange (it's a bit thinner than the RC Bladeworks).
