Been sitting on some carbon fiber scales and mosaic pins since Blade last year. Intend to put them on a stripped dagger. Someday I'll get around to it.

The underside of both scales for Wardens are milled, so there are round protrusions that lock the scales in place and provide a surface contact that prevents breaking the scales by over tightening the screws.
They work really great, and they fit so well that you will need a knife point to pry them off, they just 'click' onto the knife.

Is he going to make scales for the Scrapivore? By the time the Swamp Warden, scales, shipping are added the Rodent Solution would be a great trade off.

I don't think he got enough interest in the project to go ahead.
He's done the SW scales at work and the company employing him was the recipient of payments. There would be a minimum number required to make it worth configuring the machinery.

That sucks. Just got his swamp warden scale, and they are perfect.

Something in the pic needs scales.

From the looks of his work in the pics, the scales are top notch. Too bad on the Scrapivore scales and me missing out on the Warden ones.

He still has a link to gauge any interest in his sig, so maybe not all is lost.

I got some for my Swamp Warden and his scales are perfect! I just posted at the forum link above that I want some for my Scrapivores.

I think he can still make some more SW scales or at least has remaining stock.

Guys, the only reason why there have not been any Scrapvore scales made yet is due to lack of expressed interest by owners of these knives. Please visit this thread below to express your interest in them, all the maker needs is 30 people to commit to this and we will have them produced!
