Here’s a knife I just finished with a forged guard and brass ferrule.

A very cool little knife.  I had it in my hand, and it really feels nice.  It is smaller than it appears in a photo.  Nice balance.  The engraved details on the butt look neat.  Nicely done Robert.   God Bless,   Marc

Ditto what Ian says, and another vote for the bolster.

Thank y’all the bolster was a piece of brass tubing that I filed flats on and then cut some lines on each.
Simple.
