This was my first scrimshaw attempt. I like it to this day, it is on Ivory Micarta (plastic material)

yep its a bit crude in comparison to your work. still trying to get it down. Thanks for the heads up on the scribs.

There is a good plastic which polishes like ivory which is great to practice on. Knife makers use it for handles much of the time. Also, ivory micarta works OK. I can send you a sample if you'd like. Just email me your address.

What are you using to do this work? it looks like some kind of power assisted tool, which seems to be getting away from you. I do my work with a simple scribe. Two different sizes which I sharpen on a 2000 grit diamond stone.

This is not on a knife but is on mammoth ivory. One day soon I hope to find the time to do a scrim on a HHH Knife.
