Picked it up from Della. He had someone make it but didn't say who. I thought it was a kryptoglow but I'm not sure because it has some metallic flake in it and it glows blue more than green. The fit is pretty dang good. The holes lines up perfect and there are just a few places where the scale doesn't match the liner 100% perfect.

This is after sitting under a lamp for a minute so it would show up without a flash:

I could be wrong, but that's probably Kryptoglow. He's been messing around with that kind of stuff lately. Looks cool.

How would he get that texture unless he pours into a mold? (BTW, I tried to respond to your PM but it says you don't accept PMs.)

Left you a visitor's message with an email addy. I think it's because I have a regular membership. I'll upgrade very soon (it's about time :p).

As for the texture, you're exactly on point. He does use a mold. I have a red/black marbled one (non glow) for my 0561.
 
What did the scales run you? I know Preacher scales go for $85 and up. Can't bring myself to pay that much (as much as a ZT700). I was hoping someone would have some blemishes scales out there? I'll take it on my scale, not on my knife. I like three XXX's but not four scarlet lettered across the blade.
 
I'm planning to experiment with making a scale by making one for my Cryo. Pretty sure I'll screw it up.
