rescaled a 112

[Wildcat]

caquino inspired me to finish this 112 that i started a few months ago. i used unstabilized tiger maple. devcon 2 ton epoxy holding it together. i may put a layer of super glue on at some point to seal the scales. if the bolsters look beat up its cuz they are. once i polished them out, i put the knife in a plastic jug with coins in it. shake it around for 30 seconds. it comes out looking like it’s been in a pocket for years.

I like what you came up with to "age" it... I'm going to "borrow" that technique.

Good job and choice of wood!

go right ahead. i came up with the idea after seeing how a new knife looks after a few weeks in the pocket with spare change, keys, etc.
