Hello guys , I was assigned with the task to make a worthy handle and sheath for this blade made by the Belarusian bladesmith Alexandr Bely. It was a challenge but also a good opportunity for me. Here is the result. The guard is composed by 2 pieces - one is brass , oxidized and texturized and the other - polished inox for contrast. The pommel follows the same order. I thought that the blue molar will fit nicely in this composition. There is a black snake skin on the sheath and a piece of the molar , attached with silver wire. I hope that Alexandr will be happy when he sees what I did with his blade.
