Here I tried for the first time some silver inlay in the wall nut handle and scabbard. [The strongly embarrassed creature on the 4x13 blade is not a dog.]

 

 

This is again reluctance for throwing good steel. [4x13] The handle is of apple tree.

This goat horn handle harass the life out of me. If you take a closer look you will see it's constructed of two pieces braid each to other. I am not sure the result worth. The blade is again 4x13.

 

 

 

 

When I was young there was a game -"Can you guess the animal on the picture?"
Blade - 4x13. Handle - wild pear, deer's horn, turquoise and brass. The scabbard is of stabilized decayed paper birch with turquoise inlay.
