This one is for Son. The wood really has an iridescence that doesn't show in the image.

What are the woods?
both came from burl source.
All posts need to identify the wood!
Ah, I see Michael has modified his blade profile somewhat. Nice.To start things out I will make an entry for Michael Rader with a knife he sent me a photo of. The handle is an unusual type of Koa I had.
Both are made from unstabeilized maple. After shaping on a bench grinder, I hand sanded up to 400 grit, soaked in linseed oil, then buffed with a cloth loaded with white rouge.

The wood is Burl Source dyed Maple burl with musk ox horn ferrule.
