Finished the sheath for this one today. Some of the finest looking handle material I've seen. [img:left] [/img]

I would have gone with maple, but I've been wrong before and likely will be again.

That looks good Al! That spalted wood provides quite a contrast...the color differences are quite eye catching. Nice package. The finish you're putting on your blades is flat out kick-a$$. And I really like those grooves you're putting on the choil area too...very nice detail work.
Every day on this side of the ground is a win.

All the best things in life, live on the other side off fear.
The true eye sees not the despair of its victims, only the elegance of equilibrium. It's a demonstration of superior judgment.

NICE!!! I love the contrast in the wood. I have some Ironwood similar but have woundered how it would finish out.
