Virilis and Matt,
thanks for the compliments.
Martin, I was referring to the beading to process on the scabbard and hilt work. I need to look at my notes, which I am not sure where exactly they are at, at the moment, but essentially the beads on the hilt and scabbard are not repose work, but actual strips of beads that were then soldered on to the scabbard.
I am not sure if I am articulating that right, but I have had Matt Lukes and Ade Wink explain it to me in earlier e-mails.
Mark Morrow had thought there might have been a easier way to do this with modern tools and methods, which, did not work out so well for the first scabbard/attempt.
Hopefully I am a bit more clear than mud in what I am trying to explain.
