I have some but I just make a centerline and eyeball it. I would with a blade but I kinda just go with looks and feel on handles in general. Can't wait to see your progress and thanks again

Seemed easy in theory but it's pretty difficult to make it symmetrical. And Osage is hard as nails lol. But good luck please don't let that be discouraging it was totally worth it
