Though I feel there's something missing? :wink: Chalk up another design that I have wanted to carve for ages but haven't found time for yet. I saw one of these in a new book of Maori artifacts recently , where the barb was made from the finest kahurangi jade - absolutely amazing. It was assumed that it was ceremonial only because of the work and value involved, but it looked like it would be lethally efficient. Nice to see you finishing an impressive year carving wise on a high note. I think this new tekoteko will be your best yet! I love the red topknot. v TC Thread v myspace [ Edited by: Paipo 2006-12-31 12:08 ]
