Knife Scales




I bought a cheapo knife kit at Woodcraft. Blade and bolts - just add the wood !
So this is what I came up with. I built a 3D model and machined the scales out of some scraps of Goncalo Alves wood. Beautiful grain ! The finish after milling is not bad - it required very little sanding to fit to the knife handle. Not a bad result for an 11 minute machine run...
