Some of you may remember the sword I made for a young man that had a celtic knot on it. ( http://www.penturners.org/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=22521&SearchTerms=zelda )
This is the second step of my learning process. It started out as a key chain but I changed my mind and turned it down to slimline after I carved it. No power tools for the carving. It's a little rushed but I think it is pretty good for my first carving on a pen and second carving overall. I needed an upper barrel and thought what better than Irish Bog Oak.
I tried to burn it with a propane torch to make the knot stand out but it didn't work like I had hoped. Working on a couple of ideas for the next.
Thanks for looking and thanks even more for commenting both good and bad.
