I apologize if there is a better section to ask this question but I'm new to the site. Bought this the other day to motivate myself to give repair a try...and I love the pattern. The blades function well with good snap and half stops....there is a very slight wobble in the main clip which isn't enough to bother me. Looking for some tips to fill in the missing bone. I have a few old case knives that were in my grandfather's drawer that are broken with partial pocket worn bone scales that I might could use....not the same color but that's ok with me. Even if I filled it in with wood would be ok with me...just looking for ideas and experience out there

Take a look here viewtopic.php?f=37&t=57370. Others may have something else to share but the tips in that old thread may help you. ::tu::

I also agree. Acre glass works great. You can even jig to match if you want to.
