6" CuMai greek dagger with Epe Iron wood and fake Ivory spacers. Snakes for quillions to match the Kopis

I am just realizing that you got a mosaic pin through a copper and wood spacer layer separation. I just don't understand how you guys are getting all this stuff done. So many of projects like that keep going south. (My Good idea fairy is evil).

I put the wood and the copper together first. I really should have video'd this build but was rushed for time and I find the videos slow be down by about 50%. The two blocks of wood and the copper are actually pinned together and glued for added strength. Once I had the tang slot filed out, I used my mill to start with small holes and kept reaming them larger. I really couldnt use a drill because the drill tended to tear at the copper because of the different density of the copper and the wood.
