I have been contemplating a bench copy of this rare and famous Iroquois-attributed effigy boucheron for some time. Getting the dimensions and proportions right from the limited museum and auction catalog information required some figuring, but I believe I have gotten it pretty close. It is 9 3/8" overall, with a 5 pouce (5.5") blade, and a 3.8" boxwood handle wrapped with 1mm brass wire.

Here is the original:

You should send it to me, I'm very reclusive (and getting more so) so no one will ever see it and you can try again. 😉👍
