Very nice. You did a great job with the backing too. I'm curious, how deep is the handle?

That is indeed a great looking bow!!  I love the finish you got on the belly - gorgeous rich colour.

That backing cloth is an interesting one...  I can see a few people PMing you to get them some lengths of the stuff  :D
