Hay N Helper
I just finished this one up. Replaced the glow covers with some ebony, put some NS bolsters on, and replaced the thong tube with a pin. Also rat-tailed the bolsters. Really gives it an early knife look!

That looks fantastic Glen, big improvement. That ebony really looks good on there, looks stout and ready to work.
