Description
The last piece still needs to be trimmed down to the shape of the scabbard. And after that I have to finish shaping the of the overall scabbard.
Originally I was going to use Basswood covered with leather for the scabbard, but I came across some thin Purpleheart mill scraps I picked up earlier this year, and changed my mind. I think it will go well with the Purpleheart handled dagger I am working on.

I like your craftsmanship. and I think your right. The scabbard matching the handle will look awesome. I await seeing the finished piece. I hope you give a good polish to the scabbard. It will make the grain of the wood look so nice!

Thank you for saying so, Stan.
I played hooky today, so I did not get to it. It is looking like rain all weekend, so I went to the park to take photos and videos in the nice weather.
When I am done shaping and polishing it, it will go to my lady to do some detail work with brass wire and a amethyst cabochon. Then it will really pop!
