Progress. Got the spacer fit, now to add the 1836 half dollar. Coin goes between the guard and spacer. Got them both fit and the handle mostly fit then had to go visit the in-laws.

Finally have everything rough fit.
The Pentagon on the butt is a harness decoration from the sea of mud, and I intend to hold it on with a couple of those domed pins from the other harness decoration. The finial will be one of the Powell nails.

Closing in on this one. Here’s the blade after final polish and etch. Have the guard and spacer done and glued together, and the butt cap fit. All that’s left is the coffee etch, a final test fit with the nail finial, and then glue.
