I have read some good pointers on building knife scales out of two different primary materials front and back with a spacer. I think I get the gist of it, but I had a thought that I dont recall seeing. What if the front handle pin bisected directly in the joint line of the two materials? Is it a bad idea? Too much stress? Likely to split? Or gtg?
I am considering a combo of black micarta, white spacer, and curly acacia in the back, probably with a 1/4 inch brass pin. Does micarta sanding stain light colored wood?
