The scales are 100% solid copper. SwissBianco sells the scales for $25 a set. I am currently waiting for the titanium scales that he is having made. These scales can be put on any 91mm Victorinox knife. They are "Plus" scales meaning that they can accommodate all of the usual compliment of accessories, tweezers, toothpick plus a ballpoint pen. They must be glued on using a 2 part epoxy glue.
Here is what the scales look like...
The titanium scales will cost a little bit more than the copper but the prototypes look really nice. I purchase 2 sets of the copper and will be deciding which one of my SAK's I want to put this 2nd set on. They look and feel amazing!
