Looks like a winner.:tu
Nice work! Great finish. How did you pin it? Looks good! If I may, a bit bulky for me, esp at the tang. Show us the wedge end!
Everyone enjoys working with horn. Another fine example! :tu
Thank you. The pins are brass. I will post more pics, ie wedge end, soon. The wedge is black paper micarta. A bit bulky for me too, now that it's done.Quote:

Thanks to those who gave input.
Here is a pic of the wedge end. Sorry for the delay. And the poor quality of the pic. Might be time for a camera upgrade.
Wedge is black paper micarta. Scales are black with white streak horn. Thanks again for the feedback.
