15/16 Grange Jne A Paris Faux Frameback in Brown Horn

I've had this blade for a few months and decided to do something about. These scales were made without power tools, just my coping saw and sand paper. The horn scales were very transparent when I started but aren't now so I don't know what happened. The wedge is bone. The blade and scales were both sanded to 2500 grit wet/dry and then buffed on a microfiber towel. Feedback/critiquing is appreciated, thanks.

Feedback, huh. Ok.

Terrible work. Awful. Where are the scratches on the horn? The malformed pins? The gaps between the wedge and the scales. All these essential elements are incorporated into my restores but you seem to have neglected them. Send that to me immediately and I'll try to fix what you've botched up here.

Oh, and you may as well toss that Ern Ator you just did into the box as well. No need to thank me. I do it because I love.
 
Beautiful job there Sir :thumbup1: The shape of the scales suit the shape of the blade nicely. Very subtle figuring in the horn - i like it !!

I like it. And the two-tone pins...I really like it!
Well done. Framebacks always look classy.
