Looks great! That Tiger Myrtle is beautiful stuff to work. Also good to see another WWF member close-ish to home!

Hi Stewie,
Just beautiful, I like the finish you are getting on that tiger myrtle, the handle shaping is just perfect to my eye, nice crisp front edges on the cheek and top look good with the rounded hand grip..
And, I like the way the heel of the saw plate curves nicely into the handle.
Regards
Ray

Love the little 'petals' on the horn tips, Stewie. I'm always too timid to add little flourishes like those, partly from innate conservatism, partly through fear they may be a bit fragile, but they do give your handle extra zing and personality. As Ray says, your lines are excellent, another top mark....
Cheers,IW

Thanks Stewie, that's a handy supplier to keep in mind, the prices might be a bit on the steep side, but still, not as steep as some fancy figured walnut for gun stocks, where you can pay thousands for a blank. Definitely worth considering for saw handles, and special projects.
