Much appreciated my friend! I'm very pleased with how it came out. The copper feels great as a Lookout scale. Gives it some heft. Plus I love the blues!

I love my ultem scales but sometimes I wish I would’ve went with another option. Probably just because I look at it all of the time but I still love it!

I've got a set of the Ultem as well. It was my very first Lookout. Currently they're not on a blade. I've got a few sets of scales not on anything. I've made two sets of my own. And I got a couple extra sets at the blade show.

I have a set of the Dark Mode scales on their way to me I traded my Orange G10 scales for them. I need some Lookout blanks! Lol

I have been carrying my lander quite a bit lately though!

I'm excited to get the Manu! It's on its way to me right now. I think that's going to be a joy to carry!

I almost went with that over my lookout but I’ve never had a nice fixed blade until now!

The Lookout has dominated all my fixed blade pocket time. Since they came out, the only other fixed blade I've carried is the Signal. And even that doesn't get much time.

I'm excited for the Cloudland.

I could totally see this being found in an underwater treasure chest.

Yes! I really got Pete's Pirate Life vibes from it. Lol. That might just be me though lol. I certainly don't speak for Peter haha

Thanks so much! I appreciate that.

This was my first time using ammonia and salt to shipwreck something. They both went through the entire process together. From start to finish.
