this was not my only OOPS tonight.
while contouring the bolsters I nicked the tang. not bad, but way too much to hide. my solution to this ended up being to taper the tang. that worked out well enough, but its not the way I prefer to go about it.

on the plus side though.... my selection of cork belts sure made cleaning up that hollow grind a piece of cake.
How did you do the engraving/etching on the bolsters? That looks awesome!
