Title: Mora blade with Micarta
Post by: skullworks on April 07, 2008, 07:40:00 AM

Here is my first attempt at using micarta. Had a little trouble keeping everything even and the micarta seems to have some stress lines or blemishes in it. They look like cracks but I can't feel them and the don't show from different angles. Oh well...live and learn.

It isn't that bad to work with. I would stay away from the G10 unless you have a good respirator. This was paper micarta and that stuff produces a lot of dust! LOL!
