I was seriously looking at those when Ken put those up early on.
Glad you have them looking very swell on that neat early Smith.
I was thinking of them on my similar 38/44 4 inch Smith , also..
Great Looking Combination Lee !!

Very nice stocks, and a great revolver! I've seen lots of great examples of Ken's work here on the Forum,and I'll be ordering a set from him soon. I'm also a fan of "antiqued" elk antler stocks on vintage revolvers, but in this case I did the antiquing myself. I was putting together this BBQ set, and wanted all the pieces to match and have an aged patina. This is a set of Pat Grashorn's stocks made for my .44 3rd Model (W&K)- I thought that they were too white to match the knife scales on my heirloom 120+ year old Cattaraugus pinned stag hunting knife. I also wanted the scales on this modern bowie knife to match. So I antiqued them...I think they turned out pretty nice! I still need to antique the deer antler buttons on my knife sheaths to complete the set. Enjoy!

OP, thanks for sharing that..... they 'pair' very well!
Ken's work has shown us some nice vintage looks recently - all jobs well done.
As for putting on some 'age', I'm certain there are a boatload of techniques. Does anyone want to share some? I have had good luck with coffee and Guinness Stout (separately or together).
