I believe that's my favorite Craddock so far.

A lot to like. :thumbup:

 

[Jon Brand]

Nice. I don't know why but it sorta looks like Bagwell influenced to me.

GREAT looking damascus and stag Mike. Aesthetically speaking, I think some profiling of the guard, such as rounding the sharp edges and thinning it a bit towards the clamshells, would take it to the next level.

It DOES look quite good as is though.

I agree, would make a great looking Bowie even better.

Really good basic guard shape, just needs a little refining as Peter laid out.
