That's a pretty fantastic thing you've made there. I really enjoy posts that show things made by the OP. Handmade stuff is great, and that is an exceptional piece. I take it a rawhide thong will secure the two halves and a second piece of raw hide to tie them on your bonce? Do you have a planned trip to colder climes this winter to try them for real?
What technique do you use? I've read tutorials of scratching lines, making lots of small dots and carving out lines.
Brill Fish don't think you'll need much more practise,might have to do a bit of dealing with you,scrimming a few knife handles for me.
