Wow, I really like that! Definitely different. Looks like a great chopper and perfect for 5160. I also like that jimping on the spine for extra grip. Can I ask how you adhered the bone bolster? Epoxy? Much thanks.

Thanks guys. I was a little unsure being a semi sub-hilt with no front guard, But it feels great in the hand . The man that ordered it had a bad hand so wanted help with retention.
