    New Style Sgian Dubh

    Just got this one to this stage and wanted some feedback. I cast a moonstone gem into the pommel and mounted it to an ebony grip. The blade is damascus that I have yet to etch properly. Kind of a sleek modern sgian style. Not the best of pics but you should get the idea.

    I think it looks great. I'm really partial to Scandi-grind blades, and the stone inset looks fantastic.
