Well thank you all  ;D!

@Parnell;  Funny you should ask, it seems a bit thick to me, heh.  The grip is 1 1/8" side to side by 1 1/2" front to back, in the lowest part of the curve.  I was trying to emulate the handle area NOMADIC PIRATE put on some of his bows.  I have a way to go yet, but it is comfortable.

@Holton;  That is correct!  I expect the levers to be shortened, re-tipped, and who knows what, before it's over.

The fade sculpts were a whim inspired by several days looking over spoon carving sites, as if I needed another way to cut myself.  Glad you like them!

Thanks,
Frode

Frode...is that danish?


Sorry, Holten, somehow I missed answering that part.  Yes, it's Danish, or at least Danish-ish.  It's a Scandinavian name that goes at least back to 600 CE or so, and apparently still common today.
