    That's a really neat old blade with those scallops.
    The red dyed horn is fooling my eye. By the looks of the pics I would have guessed cocobolo.
    I love the domed collars.
    All in all....Stunning!!

    Came out great Mike. That red is a love hate thing I know. Can't touch the red or it goes bye bye.

    Very much like the red streaked horn, blade finish is outstanding once again.

    Thanks Martin! The red horn is really attractive...especially with a big blade... but it is not easy to work with, because the dye used to color the horn only goes so deep. As I said you have to do all the sanding on the back side of the horn and carefully polish the surface.
