Well the bolo arrived today and it turns out that it's a one eared dog Must have lost it in a fight . The good news is the scabbard is made out of carved horn. I cleaned up the blade and gave it a few strokes on my sharpening stone and it now has a razors edge . I'll take some pics tomorrow of the finished product and post them.

What I just noticed is that the top quillion is in the form of a rooster head. Here are some pics.

I am with Steve, nice one! Do you plan to give it back the missing ear?

Regards,
