Hi Dale. To gain the skill you need the practice. Go for it.

I love the handle. The original looked okay, if unrefined and bulky. Your rework is lovely.

Stewie, I really enjoy your posts that show how you did the work and the tools you used. Your description of what you were trying to accomplish both aesthetically and functionally with your re- shaping of the handle is also really interesting and helpful to me. Congrats on a great result! Mike

My comment seems to have vanished,Stewie. You have made remarkable improvements in handle making these past months. I am surprised that there was enough extra wood in the original handle to get this beautiful result. Congratulations!!!
