It's a full tang blade made from a file.
I have made some wonderful scales from some oak that was once growing in my garden.
I'm going to use epoxy and brass pins to hold them on.
If I were to use a spacer what material should I use?
I think the knife would look good with a dark green spacer between the steel and the light coloured oak.
Would it complicate the epoxy process making the handle weaker? Are spacers best used when actually bolting the scales onto the blade?
Many thanks guys.
