I am pretty pleased with the scabbard, but wonder if someone can shed a light on the inlays.

Can you post pictures of your spear for comparrison ?

Best regards,
Willem

Hi Willem

I don't know how to do the link, but my spear was the subject of my thread starting June 2011, with images that you can compare...

Kind Regards
Colin
