Finally, I’ve figured out how to get the high gloss finish I’ve desired on my stabilized wood handled knives. It’s all in the compounds!

    Thanks for taking it step by step. New to buffing at this stage in my knife making and its kinda scary doing something that could mess up my hard work. But now I know! Thanks.

    This is great, I'm looking to get a buffer in the relatively near future and will keep these compounds in mind... that finish looks fantastic.

    So does it require a top coat? Bees wax, boiled linseed, tung oil etcetera?

    Do you find that the liners are necessary? Are they really just for look or is there a purpose besides appearance?

    There for looks as well as serve in creating a better bond between the knife steel and the handle material.

    What about the black residue on the scales? I noticed that your buffing wheels were turning very black also. How did you address that?

    Residue rubs right off. No way to avoid the wheels turning black that I had found.

    I think you had some crab left in the brass hole and it came out while buffing.
