The only comment that comes to mind is that it took my breath away.

Incredible work!
 
That is a piece I would carry, treasure, fondle, drool over...

Perfection right there.
 
Steve, that is one of the most beautiful slippies I have ever seen! There is a lot going on, with the engraving, filework and gold inlays, but everything works together SO WELL!!
Fantastic, breath-taking work. Congratulations!
 
That trapper is stunning! I particularly like the engraved bolsters!

BTW, how was the filework on the spring done? It looks almost like it was stamped rather than filed. It is very subdued yet elegant.
 
I'm not Steve and can not even play him on TV, but the back spring looks to be engraved while the liners are fileworked.
 
Thank everyone for the kind words. Bastid you are correct. The backspring was engraved.

Best Regards,
Steve
 
Excellent work all around. The steel, engraving and bark scales all complement one another beautifully.
