You're probably right Kai, I just finished comparing the tone of your Krises inlay to my spearhead's, they're about thesame.

Thanks,

Hello Punal, I never got around to decide wether the last polishing round was going to be the final one.

So, the blade is still unstained and disassembled. I'll surely post pics once it's finished...
