Custom antiqued khukuri dap project

I cut a short log from some cedar gifted to me by Hurricane Idalia last year, and with some leather I had on hand, I made a custom dap for one of my antique IMA Nepalese Army khukuris (Nepali script stamped "longleaf" 15-inch blade).  I bought two antique Gurkha patch knives during the MRL Father's Day sale to use as the karda and chakmak.  I used the hand tools shown (note the Stanley #113 circular plane, great for shaping inside and outside curves) to carve the core, but used a power drill and a #41 bit to produce stitching holes in the leather.  

I inletted the core in back with gouges to fit the internal leather sheaths that I sewed for the karda and chakmak  I used some brown leather to cover the top of the core, and to cover the tip.   I made a matching belt, which will also serve as a baldric (my preferred carriage style).

 IMHO, the pictures are mostly self-explanatory.
