What to do?

[Gahagan]

ok I am torn on what to do here. Do I cap the end or do I do another half guard with clamshell on the rear to make it look like a partial D guard? Please give me some input. I have everything test fitted and am going to hand sand the blade but want to know what to do before I take it all apart to sand it.

If it were me, I would cap it.

I would give it a low dome and just polish it.

 

[Rudy Joly]

Cap it.

It's got a nice flow as it is, I think a partial D guard would take away from that .

That is what i was leaning to but my wife kept insisting I do the partial D guard.

 

[SBuzek]

Cap it.

Not that I am anyone but I think a D-guard would take away from it. Its too close to just right now so go with a low cap to match the short ferule so as not to take away from it! My O2 anyway but what do I know! :biggrin:

 

[UncleBillyKnives]

I vote cap it. Sweet knife!

.....my wife kept insisting I do the partial D guard.

That changes everything. :34: It now seems likely you would be much happier with the partial D guard.

cap it

The true inspector General has spoken! Do the D guard, Or come up with a great reason it won't work!

The problem is that you asked her! Got to keep our lovely wives happy!
Merry Christmas.

Butt cap with,perhaps,a small pommel might look hot. Ron.
