[Docscoot]

Just wanted to share how incredible the red linen micarta small Inkosi looks after the glass blast and spa treat!!! May be helpful for anyone wondering how the micarta looks after the treat. Definitely a beauty!

What was the turnaround time from CRK?

A month to the day from when I sent it off to when I had it back.

Wow, that looks great! I really like that glass bead finish.

Do they replace the micarta? It looks completely new/untouched. I would have thought the blasting would have torn it up.

Anyway, thanks for sharing!

It's the original micarta, but I agree it now looks brand new. I mostly posted just to share that bit, I wasn't sure what to expect from the glass blast of the micarta, but it appears to have smoothed it out a bit, and given it a bit more of a shine, even brought out the red a little. Really nice result! I also suspect the titanium finish is going to be a bit more wear resistant than the regular bead blast which seems to pick up snail trails pretty easily.

Looks absolutely amazing!

I think it's time I box them all up and send them off to have this done.
