The wood scales look great too mate well doneThat looks GREAT! Gotta step my game up ;P Slowly but surely!
Got my second pair of scales finished up today. Loving the way this wood looks, but it's hard as hell and a pain to work with, so the grip is a little too chunky still. I'll probably end up slowly working it down and refinishing every once in a while over time, and I'll get some better shots with my real camera tomorrow. The cell phone doesn't quite do things justice...

Geee, I wonder why that really appeals to me? lolAlright, real photo time! I'm still working on the finish for the scales on the knife, and the exported jpg files are a bit more red than in reality, but man do I love this wood! They've been a fun project, and one that I'll keep being able to work on over time 8)
