The whole thing is done, but I am waiting on the epoxy to dry for the "concho" on the heel before I take real pictures. I made a leather ferrule using part of the logo for my friend's sideshow group (with their partner's permission, that way I avoided copyright issues). I tied two 5x4 TH knots to sandwich it, and not seen in the picture is a 7x6 knot in black. I decided not to remove the core from the strands, as I really like the look of the rounded cord, as well as the way the knot feels in hand.

Thanks Ron! I really like how it came out. Seeing the whole build completed really makes the whole process worth it.

Ethan, these colors were chosen for sentimental reasons.

Cool ferrule. Is that a mask? Phantom?

very nice, Jesse. I tend to do my transition knots with the guts in too. I prefer the look of the raised knot as opposed to flat cord.
