Brian,
Thanks for the picture!
Yes, to me it looks a bit of a challenge!..........but there goes that word again,...Challenge!
Challenges have to be met,...Don'cha know?
The scabbard I have has a ring on the middle fitting, so suppose it would also have one on the upper?
Jens,
I believe Tim is referring to the cost of making the upper fitting for the scabbard.
Re. how much metal removed, don't know. More sweat than metal i think!
Tim,
I see what you mean, but in my book I equate difficult and expensive together!.......as in, if it's easy to make, any daft --- can make one, so it should be cheap! Whereas if it's a bit harder to make, then Hmmm,.......it's gonn'a cost you!
Sorry for answering Jen's question to you Tim, Your post came up while I was answering mine!
