I have a mammoth ivory knife where the cracks are filled with black epoxy- turning it into a "Zebra knife" that my daughter liked so much it became hers on her 6th birthday. I am sure she will love this one. I like how you thought outside the box for this one! If buying it I would prefer the pins lower into the center of the handle, but it does look like a great user with its own personality, thank you for showing this knife.
