All About Pocket Knives

I just finished this recently. Someone had this 708Y, and wanted to put some new scales on it. I was surprised to find the Swinden construction, but I guess I shouldn't have been...

Some new Autumn Gold bone, retipped the main blade, and some cleanup, and good to go.

Oh my Glenn. That's just niiiiiiiice!

Thanks to you I catch myself looking for knives with bad sales now!

Nice job Glenn!
Is that bone?

Yeah, that's Culpepper's Autumn Gold. It gives some nice varied depth when you work it, not so dark that it doesn't carry the natural properties of the bone itself. I always shy'd away from "non-standard" bone colors, but the colors do add something...green, red, yellow, they all look pretty decent once you put them on something.

Thanks.

Great to see Doug's knife fixed up.
