And here is the last one that I got done.

Its closer to what I'm leaning towards. I think that it will depend on the dimensions and slope of the tang though.

These designs are all contingent on blade and tang dimensions though. I realize that I will need to make adjustments to them and design a wedge that will work with the tang shape. (any idea there are also welcome)

It is possible that the idea of having that scale shape is impossible, but I just thought I'd post what I was thinking about.

I am rubbish at drawing, so cut me some slack eh?
