Great work, there's some comfy looking handles there. They must feel proud trusted to be using non guarded handles too.

 

[Raybennett]

Fantastic. If any come for sale please let me know.

Some really good ones there. Kudos to you for taking the time and being so dedicated.
They do learn from a good maker, Alf.
