There are 2 layers of welt on this one. The inward layer is skived
toward the muzzle while the outer layer is skived to increase in
width as the inward layer decreases.
By the time the welt gets to the muzzle the two
layers are the same width together as they were at the top.
The inward layer ends at the muzzle and the outward layer
goes on across the bottom of the muzzle as a single piece.
(Hope my description is understandable)
