Graham,13, just finished this for his mom for Christmas. He bought the blank at the hammer-in last August and did the bevel that day. He originally did white scales, but decided he liked the orange better. He's done 99% of the work himself, but Dave Larsen sharpened it. He originally had a 400 grit finish, but there were some 120 grit scratches that weren't coming out so he decided to bead blast it.
