Decided to try some more Afzelea with spacers and bloody basin jasper. Waiting to see the sunlight so I can take good pics of the file work.

By the way, just an afterthought, the Afzelea has a tendancy to pick up the black residue off the metal polishing so I decided to use superglue to finish the wood, no problem. Also, tape, tape, tape. That's a trick I learned right here from you guys, thx a million.

Mike, you've done a fantastic job on that knife.
I can tell you without a doubt that is the best looking Rough Rider I have ever seen! :mrgreen:
Handles look great and the file work is wonderful. ::tu::

Thx for the generous comments. I have to give credit to Mike Hoover (Redrummd) for the inspiration I got from the Red Leopard Skin jasper knife he made for me, it really meant a lot to get something like that, keeps making me want to do better, bigger.
