Wostenholm attempt number 2

[dakotaev]

Hey all.

As my skills progress I've decided my first pair of scales on this razor weren't really up to par so I decided to re-scale this guy again.

Scales are made of Bocote finished with Orangewax, wedge is purple heart.

Original:

First attempt at scales (ever) for this razor:

 

[steelhead]

It looks better. Nice job!

 

[grump]

Good job!

 

[SliceOfLife]

Nice job, but why on earth did you ditch those original scales? They're nice.

 

[Luc]

Nice work!!

 

[johnmrson]

That looks really good. You've done an excellent job on that set of scales.

 

[Wid]

Very nice indeed.

 

[dakotaev]

Nice job, but why on earth did you ditch those original scales? They're nice.

Thanks all.

Slice:

I still have them. A lot of the staining would not come out. Maybe when I have time I try to bring them back to life.

The scales suit the blade better than the first attempt. Save the bone scales, they may bleach out with some care.
