"beautiful" just doesn't cover it... But as I'm lost for words, it'll have to do!
Gorgeous grip-work too... I've a few pairs of boots with that type of plaiting around the edges. If you make another grip like that, you've GOTTA do a build-along for it!! Please??
What kind of leather is it?
***EDIT***
Knew I forgot something... is that the new term for 2 dozen arrows....? "...a mess of arrows..."

Long may they last you and may they fill your freezer (and bellies) for years to come!
