Bernie,
Crossguards are crossguards, and I think that we are pretty much on the same page there for blades. The fit of crossguards to scabbard mouthpieces - that I have to think a little more about. Some of the 'perfect fit' daggers I�ve seen show some evidence of forced fitting. And damage like the �Gau� example from a couple of entries back. Here is the front, and I can�t say that I am particularly thrilled about what looks like a fairly large chunk of grip missing from the top upper left side as well as the back.
Not for me, I�m sure that somebody is going to like it. And so I think that we can all respectfully have our own like and dislikes.
With My Best Regards, Fred
