Albert,
That is a beautiful piece of work. I am intrigued by the butt cap and would love to hear how you accomplished it. Thanks for showing.

Thank you Carey!!Glad you like it!!I have been doing bolsters and but caps or pomels with silver rings and either silver sheet,or old coins for the bolster,and in this case an old silver spoon silver soldered to the ring,and filed to the adequate shape!!I finally fill those with epoxi with powdered metal to a protruding screw or the tip of the tang witha nut to grab!!
I hope you understand my explaination!! Best regards:Albert Happy 2008
