Looks very nice, is the steel 3mm or 4mm?

it is 3mm - I don't like the thicker stuff

Very nice.
If it were made for me, I'd have had the handle made without the ball end, but it wasn't, you made it for yourself and did a fine job!!

Pete.:)

In actual fact it wasn't made for me or you, it was made for another chap who has smaller hands than mine and we went through all his preferences (wood, scale profile , size,etc).

thanks for all your comments

How are the handle scales attached to the tang? I don't see any pins... :confused:

magic........


actually it was araldite but that stuff's so strong it may as well be magical. I don't have a pillar drill and my hand held power drill always has the possiblity of 'walking' on the wood and ruining a pair of yew scales. Perhaps a future investment...
