My attempt
« on: March 12, 2009, 05:58:23 PM »
So's not to highjack another thread... :)

I made this one from an old Farriers Hoof Rasp, the Grip is black walnut with steel pins.
Photo's are not that great and does not show the file work relief.

Going for an early 1840's look...and deliberately did not do a guard
when planets align...do the deal !

Nice, Major 2,
looks like it has some heft to it.
