    O'Neille,
    Beautiful sgian! Seeing the "in production" shots of this one gave me the courage to try one of my own. I'll get pictures up once I get an undisturbed weekend to try it out...

    Well now - that's just beautiful! Very nice combination of materials and the craftsmanship is (of course) to notch.

    Thank you for posting the photos.
