    Thanks, I think I can do that.
    practice with your SS blade first before you do the damasus

    The best part is if it doesn't turn out right
    just melt it off and try again, no one will ever know that you messed up

    it goes faster that hand sewing a sporran!

    good luck

    Nice work. I really like the embroidery on the neck sheath.

    Thank you but I can't take credit for the neck sheath , it was a gift from my wife.

    the sheath is brain tan deer with dyed moose hair embroidery, edged with porcupine quill wrap

    I have been working on a few blades too, thanks for the grits of sand paper you use. I need to go finer for a better finish. Thanks.
