If you'll notice there is also a chunk off that Raffir you have sitting on the bolster....

Really cool Larry !

I'm working on some natural stabilized burl scales at home, screw construction this time. I'll try to make pictures once I get my hands on them again

Uuuuuf! Fantastic. I knew it was worth asking!

Picked up a few sets of Micarta scales for my next mule. Haven’t tried these ones before so will see…look good to go.

Thank you, Chad! Truly means a lot.

If I've been waiting for a chance to show off some of my 3D-printed resin scaled mules, then I guess the time has come to spill a few pictures. These scales are from FullScaler here on the forums - he has his own business with scales available. They are super light, have been very durable so far, fit my XL hands great, and they work pretty well with sheaths designed for the Halpern scales (like the Spyderco bolteron and the AZ Welke taco). It's hard to overstate how cool they look in person, particularly the clear resin, which has a pearlescent-type sheen that is hard to capture. A big benefit to scales that look like this is your very useful fixed blade knife is transformed in the eyes of the lay onlooker from "scary knife" to "fun looking tool".

Now that it's autumn I've been spending a plenty of time in the forest gathering some of my favorite foods to fill the freezer. Enough with the text, the OP request was for pictures...

The guy that makes them is a forum user on here, his handle is FullScaler - give him a shout. You can see more of his stuff at his website (https://bladeprotection.com/mule-team-scales/) but I would suggest just sending him a DM if you're interested in buying some.
