Wood handle Trisul pics

I got my horn handled trishul today. Pics may be on the way. The handles have these huge white streaks in them! Very nice natural flair in what is definitely the weapon of a prince.
I even like the scabbard.
Its smaller than it looks in the pics, but its still very very nice. Its kind of an "Aquiline" Bowie.

DIJ, et al:
IF you get a horn handle with White or lighter colored streaks be sure and Slather on Gobs and Gobs of your preferred treatment.
The white color is beautiful but is weaker than the black and I don't think as stable.
The Sun, Moon, and Stars khuk I got of Rusty's has a white ingrained handle and that's where it is cracked! :grumpy: Right along the seam where the white infuses with the other colors.:(
 
And here is Danny's beautiful knife. Danny, anything with lanolin will help. On the good side, I've got some 50-75 year old khukuris with white streaks that are just fine.

ooooo...pretty...

I know the white is supposed to be more crack-prone...but it's so nice looking that the extra bother makes it worthwhile.
