Thank you very much Ron. Creating a design that flows nicely is one of the more challenging aspects of engraving, for me at least. As soon as I get some knife engraving work in the shop I'll post more pics.

Looks good David.
Nice balanced design.
The spacing of leaf shapes, background area, and shading all compliment each other.
Your border line looks very consistent in width, and well done.

Tim
