    Default 8/8 Friodur Gabon Ebony Re-scale

    This one was done for one one my friends here on SRP a Spanish Point Frodur 8/8 re-sacled in Gabon Ebony with solid brass hardware and vintage style pinning with a solid brass center pin....
    I tried to use the Spanish point on the razor as a design guide for the scales themselves ..... It will be flying home to NY in the morning.....

    Very nice. I like the double pins an the toe end and how the scales accent the Spanish point. Great work.

    Good show!
    I love gaboon ebony.

    Do you find it smells vaguely like walnut when you work/sand it?
