Ready to do clean up grinding now. Then start cutting out scales, drilling for assembly, etc. Damned and small game opens up tomorrow, and my part time job is pushing for more of my time. Trying hard to be ready by end of this month. Tim

Getting there. Is that my handle material 3rd down from top? If so, was it a Hickory or Pecan? Looks like Hickory but kinda hard to tell in pic. Just curious.

I stabilized a piece of hickory and a piece of pecan. That is the pecan. I thought it looked best. I will send the hickory with the knife, so if or whenever...... I will keep the leftovers unless you want them sent back.

I will keep the leftovers unless you want them sent back. All sounds good to me! .... I actually was hoping for the Pecan but didn't want to say anything. I didn't want it to sway your decision. That particular Pecan tree blew over on my place the eve of my grandpa's funeral; when a strong storm passed through. I saved those pieces of Pecan when cutting that tree up and will always remember where it come from .... especially since I bought the farm from my grandpa. Means the world to me! Those will be very special scales on that knife! Amazing how stuff works out sometimes.

Life is good. I thought the copper hardware you requested would look really cool with that set of scales.
