    Wow, I love the smile on it.... It actually looks sharp, whether it is or not is immaterial.

    Great job... I wish I had a frameback.... I've been watching for one. Maybe someday.

I am on the hunt for a ceramic bowl to fit it as I would like to make a scuttle out of it!

    I bet if you sent the mug to one of the known scuttle makers they could make a custom fitted bowl for it.

    Great job Tom! I really like how this came together and that you were able to use some vintage scales on a vintage blade.
