Thanks.

This was my first attempt at desert iron wood, and it turned out ok, there are a couple of fine hairline cracks from peening the pins, but you can barely see them, and I have seen a lot of knifes with bone or other brittle handles have fine cracks so I don't think it's a big deal. The picture is just from a Iphone and it looks way better in person.

Later,
