Not sure how you got the chrysals in the handle but can see why you didn't in the limbs, smooth tiller. Nicely done Matt, real good looking bow.

Awesome bow, the bend is beautiful and I love the handle.  Did you use a blanket stitch on the grip, I have never thought of doing that I love the way it looks.

Thanks Peacebow
Thanks GB

Thanks Tracy

Thanks Gsulfridge
Thanks Pearly
Thanks Okie
Thanks Greg, I got them because my handle wasn't wide enough.  The tiller looked a lot worse before I did the glue up.  I had to do some minor retillering but it wasn't too bad.  The walnut was from an old set of acoustic guitar sides I had lying around.  Finally out them to good use :)
Thanks Blackhawk, this is the one you gave me advise on in e beginning thanks. 
Thanks Jawge
Thanks Grady, and yes I think it is the blanket stitch.  It is my  favorite because it covers the joint of the leather. 
Thanks ehvhram
Thanks Russ
Thanks Neolithic Man
