Scratches on smooth g10 help

[Eman816]

so i have 2 small scratches on my para 3 that has smooth g10 scales. Of course it's not a big deal but it bothers me beyond belief. Anything I can do to fix them or am I just kinda stuck with it?

Can you post a picture?

That would help a lot!

G10 can be sanded but you may not like the results. The pattern (grid) can be messed up easily.

Many modeling hobby shops sell a compound specifically for polishing and smoothing plastics and such. That would be the closest thing I could think of to use..

And if you're not careful you will round off the edges and end up with something worse.

I would see if they sell replacement scales. If they do and your ok with the price and doing it then try sanding it. If you kill the scales you can always swap them out if the result isn't what you want(likely it won't be but can't say for sure).

Scratches happen and that's what makes your knife ''yours'' but if it bothers you that much you can grab some very cool aftermarket scales. I was just looking at a set that has a cool glow in the dark Spyerco emblem on the scale for $ 80 bucks. Just a thought
