Nice knife, like the way you layed the partial flower and scroll on it.

Nice to see you have survived New Years.  _________________ Norm Harris, Jr.

New years was O.K, but this storm we had knocked the crud out of us. We were out of power for 4 days. Finally got some water in the hills for the cattle though. Just wish it would'nt all come at once.

Leonard, the cutting looks good, one suggestion I would make, is to experiment with doing a scroll design with a bit more interest. Maybe some intertwining of the scrolls or the vine coming out of the flower center, things like that. It will make the viewer want to take a longer look at the piece. Overall, you did a nice job, but just something to think about for the next one.
How did you go about doing the overlay,it looks very clean. Brian _________________ bhsaddles.com

Thanks Brian. To overlay I load the master in the pantograph. Trace the master. Then I cut out the shape. Clean up the edges. Soft solder onto knife. Clean up the edges with sander,3M deburring wheels, buff.
