Having purchased one of the first batches of the above knife way back in December 2009, mine was affected by the incredible shrinking scales syndrome.

Being lazy I couldn't be bothered to send them back to Woodlore, and just used as is.

At the beginning of the year, I took the plunge and handed it over to Sasquatch to re-handle. I wanted it in antler and the same size as the giraffe Woodlore I have.

This is the result:

To say I am pleased is an understatement, the fit and finish are superb.

Many thanks once again to Chad. :)

Thanks for trusting me with the Woodlore Martin, it's not as easy as you think when the knife belongs to somebody else! :vio: I'll get some pics of the process up when I get a chance, it was all done by hand as usual so it took me ages. A bit too long in fact but hopefully worth the wait. Thanks for the positive comments guys.
