Something New

Hello Kino, yes I used Ren wax on the wood of the scabbard after a good cleaning with Murphy's oil soap. The wood actually looks even better in person than it does in the pictures and is extremely hard and heavy for its size. One would think that after all the pictures that I have taken over the years that I could do a better job of it than what I do.

The blade profile was one of the first things that caught my attention when I first found this. I have a bolo with a D-guard that has a blade profile almost identical (only larger) to the one on this tenegre.

Steve, thank you so much for your encouragement. I just hope that I am up to its successful completion.

Again, I would like to thank you both for your kind comments.
