Got some time to play this weekend and thought I'd post a pic up this morning. Hopefully I'll get some time later today or tomorrow and get to the engraving.
Santa brought my new beltsander this weekend, so I'll be able to get a much smoother wedge for this set.

Truly a work of art. These are impressive -- and I've been around long enough to where I'm not easily impressed. Great job.

I think the next step is to mount it on different backpieces.
I have nowhere near the experience or talent of Shutterbug, but I have all the tools to try this. Just need to come up with a design

The backplate is actually the backing of the leaves and berries. I'm leaving this set open to see how well the open scales work for balancing with the blade.
