Get you some minwax wood hardener and seal the spalted wood in a Mason jar with the wood hardener.

A while back on bladeforums, a bunch of knife makers who are much more talented than I came to a conclusion that soaking in wood hardner doesn't penetrate very far in to wood unless you pull a certain amount of vacuum. I send mine off to K&G in Arizona to have them professionally stabilized, but it's not economical for for just a set of scales.
He could still gain a benefit though, if he were to preshape his handles before soaking.
