Everytime I sign on (not much lately) the bar keeps going higher and higher. Restorations of blades are phenominal, but these scales are just stunning.

I've got to say John, I keep coming back to the last photo you posted (and thank you for it) and my imagination is going wild with the engraving you are going to do to finish up this side! Truly a work of art. Just wait till my brothers in lodge see your finished work.

That is truly incredible work John.
