    Awesome to hear, Tim. Welcome.

    You might want to add a drop of oil on the inside of the tang pin area between the scales.

    It shaves quite nicely. The thing about his work is that it's very detailed. No cut corners. And of course what a beautiful piece of horn he used to make the scales.
