Beer Scout mod

Post by glennbad »

This one had wood covers. The customer wanted some antique linear micarta with red spacers. Before and after...

That micarta was neat. It has a grain that looks like wood.

Well that knife looked mighty good with wood handles, but the customer is the boss and he now has a great lookin' knife with micarta handles and red spacers.
Glenn your work is always great!

Beautiful work as usual Glenn!
That old ivory GE micarta is really gorgeous stuff!
Al Mar used it on a lot of his early knives. The color gets darker with age and use, like really ivory.

I would love to find enough of that GE micarta for a knife or two, but usually when I see it for sale it is a whole sheet and lots of $$$!
