    That is a beautiful piece. And so is the tartan you have it on!

    I love the idea of showing off the worm holes.

    Chestnut is a really gorgeous wood.

    I have a small chunk of it squirreled away for a project that hasn't been conceived yet.

    That's really good-looking wood and the bottle opener is a clever idea to use for a sgian don't. But, have you considered how dangerous this is? Somebody could poke an eye out or break a finger. Dangers a side, it's very nice.

    While I have done a goodly bit of wood-carving over the years, I still prefer the simpler shape with only the beauty of the woodgrain as "decoration" You have created a true work of art.
