You don't see western handled shigs very often. Nice score!!!
NO WAYRehandle that beast! .)
Shigefusa is not worth the price anyway, so rehandle it! .)
I was of the impression that western handled shig's were renowned for having fit and finish issues with the scales. I remember a few threads about it on the old forum, and mine was far from perfect.
Are they not integral bolsters? I thought that was why they are so expensive
These are nice knives but the western handle scales (and workmanship to shape them) is really bad - some of the worst I've seen. I see the maker as more of a blacksmith than woodworker.
