    That Micarta reminds me of A) a big comfy couch, and B) the fabric used to upholster cars in the 1970's and C) The fabric used to make men's suits in the 1970's!

    I really like it.

    Don't let this fool anyone. Making scales for smaller sized razors is more a PITA as opposed to bigger sized ones. Love that canvas micarta. Great job as usual.

    Nice scales.

    Reminds me of 80's era custom knives when that canvas micarta was so popular on knives. I really like what you did on the tail with the cutout exposing the wedge. I almost want to put a lanyard hole there and a small length of paracord just to finish of the tactical look.

    Beautiful scales Brad, and even more so when you look at the original ones.

    Very cool idea. I suppose the owner could do whatever they wanted with it!
