I saw this on Edge matters last week or so, when Toby put it up for show and tell. Didn't know it was for you! Very pretty!
Quite a job to shape, etch, then reattach the scales and finish! Maintaining the pattern all around the tang
That facet of the design wasn't so clear in the earlier photos.
I will be interested to hear how she cuts when you have her tuned in.
