Well...the lines do wander a bit near the front tang. But.. Making parallel lines across a compound curve is theoretically impossible. The lines have to be "cheated" to make illusion of parallel. He did damn good! Sure hope this doesn't create a demand for fluer de lis" (Grin)

Amen to that! Don't want any more demand for fleur-de-lis. One heck of a nice job by Jesse!

Just a litle pressure to the tool. Fill in the pattern with lines @ 1/2" intervals (grease pencil or equal) so if you start to wander it becomes pretty evident and you can take corrective measures.
