    Full Custom restore Lava Kirinite with Arctic White G10 liner, the finish was brought out using 3M Micro-fiber cloth to 8000 then hand polished with Plasti-X
    Wade & Butcher Heavy Grind
    Domed SS washers with Brass pins to match the originals
    Honed on Chosera 1-5-10 with a Coticule finish

    I wish I could say the G10 liners were my idea but the owner Gabe thought of them :)

    I had to go LOOK on my Facebook IM for the "Before Pics"

    I am terrible about getting them, often I do the steel and the scales at separate times,,

    The razors come in and I might clean up the steel way before I do the scales, there is no sense to discuss the scales until we know that the steel is solid hehehe

    So even if I take before pics I forget them :p

    But Gabe had sent a few
