Made this yesterday with the fire blazing in the wood stove. Texas rock from Don.







Stay warm out there!

What a truly well made hunk of (Georgetown ??)
The base is more Big Sandy though imo. Contemporary
in time I think. What are the dimensions?
Thanks Zuma

Thanks guys.

Yes, it is resting on a nice piece of Georgetown. I love working that stuff! In fact, I just finished this little blade up this afternoon (from a different hunk.)


You could be right on the base, but I see it as an contemporary interpretation anyway so it doesn't really matter. It is 7" X 1.5"

Then don't be. I called it dove. You make one like it you can call it whatever you want.

Page 496, 497, 498 in Overstreet's 13th Edition pretty much match' s the base to me.
