Ditto, very nice! What kind of wood is that on the Case? (I assume it is wood.) ::tu::

Those both turned out super! Tony...did you just retain the original pins, on the Case, without taking it apart...and sort of "reverse fit", the wood? It actually looks nice, without any pins evident. ::tu:: ::tu:: ::tu::

Thanks fellas. The wood is wenge, and the original pins are intact indeed. Popped the scales off, sorted the back of the scales, and epoxied. The knife had good snap and fit, and I didn’t want to open it up.
