Lookin awsome. Wish I could send you a beer scout merit badge! Polish it up so it makes a beer bottle look dull! ::ds::

Here is the almost finished Beer Scout! Just some touch up left and still need to put a lime slicing sharp edge on her!

Hope you like it Ed! Great choice in handle material, that amber bone has the amber beer color, perfect for a beer scout! Hard to see it in the pics, but I put a satin finish on the bolsters to off set all the shine and color. If your like shiny bolsters Ed let me know and I'll put a shine on em'!

Thanks Tony! You know what? I have this vision of a Barlow Beer Scout..... I have another TL 29 the same vintage as Ed's. Well when I find the time that is. ::nod:: Now that would be a rare Barlow for sure! ::tu::
