I'm considering the idea of ivory or faux ivory grips, with scrimshaw art work.

The scrimshaw will not be nautical, will not be a map, will not be scantily clad women.

I would like a kind of Biblical or LDS theme, with content being towards God's love and protection.

Possible candidates -
Alma 46 - title of liberty
2nd Kings 6 - them that are with us are more than with them.
Psalms 23 - shadow of the valley of death, fear no evil

As I'm sitting here thinking of LDS symbology, I'm kind of at a loss. Moroni blowing the trumpet. Some of the artwork on the outside of temples. What else? And if temple artwork, what specific motifs?
