Yep, thank you

. Unfortunatly i will make the piece in wood because it's hard for me to find a piece of horn to work

OK, I THINK THAT MY WORK IS ENDED AN THIS IS THE RESULT. WHAT DO YOU THINK? AT THE END I HAVE NOT REPLACED THE CLIP FOR THE BELT, BECAUSE, AS I HAVE ALREADY SAID, I HAVEN'T FOUND A PIECE OF HORN, AND THE RESULT WITH A PIECE OF WOOD IT HASN'T SEEMED GOOD TO ME, AND SO I HAVE LEFT THE SCABBARD AS IT IS. ANYWAY THE SCABBARD IS NOW VERY SOLID AND BEAUTIFUL IMO (BUT MY OPINION IS NOT IMPARTIAL

). THE LACKING EYE HAS BEEN REPLACED WITH ONE NEW CARVED FROM AN IVORY PIECE. SO NOW THE GOLOK APPEARS A LITTLE MORE DECENT THAN AS IT WAS BEFORE

SORRY FOR THE TABLE CLOTH USED LIKE BACKGROUND. I KNOW, IT' S TERRIBLE

Nicely done, very sympathetic, working with the damage and accepting limits.

Well done and very quick as well

The bone parts look like they still could use a bit shoepolish (also helps to keep the pieces in shape). I'm sure you find a solution for your clip, just keep the pictures and who knows.
