I love the scales. Did you dye it before or after stabilizing?
--Nathan, TX. Hire the lazy man. He may not do as much work but that's because he will find a better way.
Looks great! I like the scales for sure…

working with my hands is a joy,it gives me a sense of fulfillment,somthing so many seek and so few find.-SAM MALOOF.

Amazing work Don! That should give you many years of service.
Andy -- Old Chinese proverb say: If you think something can't be done, don't interrupt man who is doing it.
That looks fantastic. I'd be afraid to use it but the proper way to break in any hunting knife is to get some deer blood on it.
Very nice knife and sheath, Don! Great work on both of them!!!!!!
