Super work Glen lovely looking scales, only wish I could use Ivory, I would love to get hold of some pre ban Ivory, except the left wing lunatics who seem to make these laws in the UK won't let me.

Nice, I'm liking the satin finish on that blade. Not over keen on the toe end shape of the scales, but heh I wouldn't turn it down
