Scott, maybe not perfect, but that was part of what makes that knife look great!

I'm doing a hidden tang bird/trout knife with a bog oak handle- and my ferrule, though small, is going to be 3 thin copper sections surrounding two spacer disks of buffalo horn

I'll post pics when I'm done. I've used brass as liners before ala Joe Keesler- I like it very much and it really pops dark material like buff horn or ironwood.

looking forward to seeing that Knife Ray.

Thanks for the compliment Steve!

You can buy a sheet of copper in the same thickness as your silver wire for inlaying.  Then you cut it with a sharp knife into the same width as the bezel wire.
