Cheers folks, your encouragement means a lot.

Just waiting to hear back from thewhiskeredbat about some more 1/2 inch strap and the metal fittings I need then once I have got thems I'll varnish the wood, wax the leather and fix the one to the other and it will finally be done.

I've only used it a bit so far to be honest as its a bit excessive for pottering about but look forward to getting some use out of it this summer.

Oddly the hugely thick grips haven't caused me any trouble so far. I based them roughly on the size of my favourite hammer!

I've finished the carrying strap, less fitting some little brass C shaped staples to stop the strap slipping off. You can just see the holes I've pre drilled to take them.

The woods had three coats of tough matt varnish and the leathers had a good all over smear of boot wax, the colour will improve with repeated application.

I haven't made my mind up which side to wear it on. Since it's a good tight fit I'll need to hold the sheath, unless I learn to hook the sheath on somepart of me, to with draw so its probably going to be on my left hip.

Thanks for all the help and advice on this one folks!
