Thanks mike, i enjoy all your work there awsome

 

[Fred.Rowe]

I think the single mosaic pin placed far back on the butt was a good choice.

When you get a hold of a beautiful piece of wood, as you have here, getting the knife to look balanced is a bit of a trick. You did well.

Thanks fred and larry for the comments,i set awhile trying to figure the placement of the pin and thought that was the best overall place,i wanted to keep this one for myself,but its a little large for me,it belongs on a mantle or in a collection truthfully!thanks again guys
