Any idea on the weight of the pommel? I am assuming coin silver for it or do you think it is a different alloy?

FIRST RATE RESTORATION! JUST LOOKING AT THE INLAY WORK ON THE BLADE MAKES MY EYES HURT. THE CHANNELS WOULD HAVE TO BE CUT DEEPER AND THEN THE INLAY DONE, A BIG TIME CONSUMING TASK, IMPRESSIVE WORK JOSE.

Brilliant, Jose. Thanks for sharing, good pics too.
You've recut the channels and hammered in the wire beautifully.
Do you have to use an adhesive to get the wire to hold?
