Several months ago, Drac sought some input on simplifying one of his sgian designs (http://www.xmarksthescot.com/forum/f...22/index4.html). I was enamored of his original design, but wanted something a bit more simple, which I'd sketched out in an illustration program. So when Drac asked for suggestions, I posted my sketch. Ultimately, he ended up making a couple of sgians of very similar design (http://www.xmarksthescot.com/forum/f...s-sgian-63947/) which I loved.

It was killing me not to have one of my own, but having no barterable skills with which to trade for one of Drac's beauties, I recently commissioned one of my own from a maker out of Florida, Michael Wall of Sandown Forge.

Here's the sketch I sent, followed by photos of the finished product, which I've yet to receive but am expecting any day now. If the photos are anything to go by, I think the maker did a fine job. I'll post a review once I've received the sgian.
