Ivory and Silver Gunong with New Scabbard

Battara · 13th September 2013, 04:35 AM

Greetings,

Here is a gunong I got about 9 months ago but only now had the break and time to make a scabbard for it. The hilt is not bone but a type of marine ivory with silver mounts. Measurements of the blade bring it to 5 3/4 inches.

I made the scabbard out of some scrap padauk wood and silver.

One more note: the blade is laminated with what can be called an "angel hair damascus" steel, hard to see without magnification.

Enjoy.
