Looks gorgeous - but why the brass guard? I am not trying to degrade what appears to be excellent work, just wondering why brass, since it is seldom used - and most prefer it not be.

Thank you for all the comments and encouragement!

You're a funny guy David!

Hey Charles, thank you for the belt recommendations -they work great!

Hi Betzner, I just like working with brass and how it looks. I know more people are fond of stainless. I'm currently working on my first dropped hunter with a stainless guard ... this one's going to be a little different.
