As for the tridacna hilt, i guess it'd sort of like the fossillized molar hilts for me in that i am generally not a big fan of them (though i have seen some exceptions). I think that like the molar material this is a rather difficult stuff to work with and usually the results are not very detailed or intricate. Still they tend to be highly prized. Just not usually to my liking.

Hi David,
thank's for comment. I have to agree, the planar hilt looks better.
The tridacna hilt have a very smooth patination and is for a hilt from this material nicely carved for my opinion. But it's a question of taste to like it or not.
