Back in the shop
Been out of pocket for awhile and finally got back in the shop to make some sgians. Made a stag handled sgain, a carved ebony sgian, and a boxwood sgian.

I agree with TheSp8 that boxwood is wonderful, great craftsmanship.

The antler handle is nice, but the boxwood really takes the cake in this series. They all look very nice, well done lad.

I especially like the boxwood. Very understated but classy. The blade almost looks like a pearl!

Very well done, indeed! I personally like the stag handle the most, but the boxwood handle is undeniable classy.

Thanks fellas, the boxwood sgian was the first I made of that wood and I am hooked on it now. The "pearl" look to the blade was me not getting the right angle not to have a reflection off the steel.

I'd vote for the Boxwood. Very different looking and very cool!
