Very nice indeed!! I think me and my pommel cap are going to go back into the garage & hide
;)
 
Yvsa,
Here's the shot with a scale. As you can see, it's a standard 12" AK blade, with a little hand rubbing to improve the villager finish. The butt cap was cut out of a piece of brass 3/8" thick, the filed to shape. The guard was filed out of a similar size piece, perhaps a bit thicker. I filled a 35mm film can with brass filings. Don't ask me why I saved them, I guess just curious about how much would be scrap.

Thanks to all for the encouragement :) ;)
BTW, here's a thread I started a while ago on the stacked leather sheath:

Awesome Brian...stunning!

Dammit man...a price...we need a price! ;-)
 
Hmmmm... 40 cents an hour and all the rice I can eat? All this, and a Maoist workers paradise too? Where do I sign up Bill? :confused:

Thanks to all you good folks for the encouragement, kindness, and karma. It will keep me going.
