Several years ago I made a self-bow from Orange Osage and it has been going strong since. I frequently rub it down with boiled linseed oil and one of the properties of this wood that I like is that it is getting darker as I oil it and it ages.

I saw a post in which someone had orange osage handles on their Becker. Does anyone know of a maker currently offering these scales? A search online revealed nothing for my BK15. Any help is appreciated.

While we are at it, anyone with wood covers on their Becker, if you'd be up to sharing pictures, I am sure we would all appreciate it.

I am just looking to do more to "make her mine" and add a one of a kind flare. Thank you in advance for any assistance.
 
Tommythewho has offered em in the past. Used to come around here. Now he's found on the bay.

Are those Marathonman scales? They look just like the ones I have.
