This week I made on a pair of knife scales and remade a vintage boy scout hatchet handle. The axe was made by Bridgeport in the late 40's, and I found it on eBay for $40. The scales are made from "Dragon-scale" Patterned Plywood with brass rivets. This video was inspired by view comments, so if you have projects you'd like to see me make next leave a comment below!
