Thanks Bj. Surgery is for trigger finger, which of course is on my middle finger of my string hand, and I shoot split finger with a glove, so it carries most of the pressure. Hopefully recovery will be quick and effective.

The image of the belly side of the tip looks like edge grain. Is that just streaks in the finish?

Jim, the only photos of the tips are off the back profile, and the tip up against my finger for size comparison.  This stave had some diluted red coloration in it and then heat bending the tips brought out the streaking grain. Only finish applied was 5 coats of Tru oil.
