    Looks great G. The wedge is a really nice compliment to the olivewood.

    Looks beautiful Glen, love how you placed that knot in the perfect spot, the scales and the razor look a perfect match.

    thanks gents, especially for noting the plan of the Knot I really wanted to get the one in on the backside too but it just would not cooperate, it ran into the edge of the blank
