  • Today marks the 24th anniversary of 9/11. I pray that this nation does not forget the loss of lives from this horrible event. Yesterday conservative commentator Charlie Kirk was murdered, and I worry about what is to come. Please love one another and your family in these trying times - Spark

An Unkindness of Ravens...

Beautiful! Did you use tung oil as the finish, love the depth and I’m just seeing a picture, I’ll bet it really glows in person.
 
Thanks, all, for the comments!

It would be hard to clearly convey how much I enjoy a project like this. This blade is a rare one, and as I understand things, it really shouldn't be out in the wild. It is, and that's water under the bridge. But it's a very interesting project to me for this very reason. A LOT of trust is placed on me to put this together and I am very grateful that someone would have the confidence to let me do a set of pinned and epoxied scales on this 1-off blade. Projects like this are very humbling and very rewarding to me personally.

Thanks all, once again, for letting me share my on personal brand of crazy with you.

I believe you just scaled the only CPK to escape the compound without slabs attached. Thanks for letting us walk through the project with you, there was never a worry my friend.
