Repair practice- re handling an ulster scout

I haven't done any real knife repair in years and have a nice project lined up so I decided to practice on this run of the mill ulster first. Mahogany handles and still pins just for cheap practice. Fit and finish aren't perfect but it was nice to see I could do it again.

Beautiful job I'd be proud to tote it.
I really like wood handles and those are great.

Thank you all so much for the kind words, it means a lot coming from the folks on here.
I really enjoyed working on that one so much I went back out and re handled another one. It was a end-of-days Camillus that hadn't been fully finished, so it got some green bone handles and a mirror polish on the blade

I absolutely love the "fault" in the bone. That is too cool for school. Gives it character.
Where did you hide the rocker pin?
