    Default J. Wostenholm 6/8, Henry Sears 13/16

    First one is transparent horn. Scales are thinned to 1/16" thick. just about as thin as vintage horn. Stacked washers, brass rod, Micarta paper ivory wedge









    you can see how thin they are here..




    Second one.. Henry Sears... Paper ivory micarta... EXTREMELY thin pieces of black horn for the lining on the wedge

    Both stunning examples of your attention to detail, apart from all the obvious things the pinning really impresses me.
    Man, the clearance between the blade and wedge in the first one is tight,
    Glen will love it.

    Nice job Brad!

    Those both look brilliant! I'm really digging the wedge on the Sears, and those super thin scales.
