It's great that you kept the ring pommel delicate. Often modern versions are way too chunky.

I agree J.D., the ring is very pleasing visually. Thanks for sharing with us Michael.

I agree , very well done.
This looks very similar to the Albion Kern, no doubt due it's similar roots.
Any idea on how it handles in comparison?
Oh the power that someone could give us, to see us as others see us
