Nice one. I like the red spacer material you used. Sets off everything else.

Thanks fellas!
My pleasure wiseguy! Yah, the blade is in amazing condition and made the knife well worth the effort.
Aimus, glad ya'll are enjoying the knife, it was a fun and worthwhile project.
Glenn, I like the spacers too, but I have to be brutally honest. They were a fix from a slight miscalculation on my part, between the handles and bolsters.

Well, I hadn't thought about copper gringo, but that might have been alright too. The red in this case is vulcanized spacer material. Same stuff used by alot of knife companys over the years. It just happened to be the perfect thickness for the space I needed to fill.
