LR Harner Semi-Custom Blank in Violet Acrylic

This belongs to my friend Al_Raz...
Butch Harner made some of these Semi-Custom blanks and Al had his sent out to me for some scales...

We had picked out two colors one was an Electric Blue and the other was this Opalescent Violet... I actually made scales in both colors and after 400 grit sanding I wet them down to see which was going to look better...

Well by far the Violet just came alive, it just kept getting better and better as I went higher in grit ... I finished out at 12,000 grit Micro-Mesh and then Novus 1-2-3 polish... I used NiAg pins and brass/SS/brass stacks for the washers and kept a bullseye look... The center pin is also NiAg but with a tiny #0 brass washer, Al wanted a more subtle look on this one, the wedge is Amethyst acrylic....

I can't wait to hone this one up so I can test shave it...

Looks like a cool blade, and the craftsmanship on the scales is magnificent. Purple is a little much for me, though.
