Greetings all,
I decided to try a 13 inch stiletto re-scale for a change of pace. This is a pretty intimidating knife to start with! All went well, and it even seems to be a little snappier after putting it back together.
I used a hidden spring pin, 24k gold torx screws for the cosmic purple swirl scales, and topped her off with my "S" (sniper) filework. These scales are truly awesome, for some reason, the camera captures them in more of a blue hue, but they are actually purple.
Enjoy the pic's

Cameras [and 'puters] sometimes have a hard time deciding between Blue and Purple and decide the wrong way

Panner, That last brass and burl I made is going to be a tough one to top. I've got some ideas though

Awesome! Sniper, you know I've been a fan of the outre acrylic handle material. The local staid collectors cast a dim eye on my fondness for bizarre scales. Have trouble finding someone to swap out a natural scale material for some acrylic or other "cheaper" handle. But that is some cool stuff. Keep it coming.

HO! HO!
