Thanks Matt, much appreciated. It's good to know that you approve of it and we were sort of on the same wavelength.
Gaffer, I did look at branding it because my friend is a tattoo artist and he also brands wood as a hobby to sell on so could see what he can do.
I would like to take up your offer of sheathing it, I don't know where to start with leather work and I've heard good reviews of yours. How would I go about getting you to make it for me?
Thanks again
