Is that scratches or epoxy where the blade meets the antler. If scratches...it will help if you tape the blade when working with it to keep from getting cut as well as protecting the finish. If epoxy...use some acetone and wipe it down before it dries. If neither then I'm a dunce! LOL! Looks good though...patience & practice!

Tape will control that to an extent. If it is dry then it will have to be scrapped off. I use a new sharp razor blade or utility knife blade. Go slow aand easy to avoid scratching the blade. Great work though. Helle blades can be tough because of the way they angle where the blade meets the tang. Like I said...practice and patience!
