Walnut is such a beautiful wood. Where the heck is Mazaki sourcing his ferrule material from?
Seriously, I've been wondering why walnut is not more common in knife handles. It has been all the rage in high end rifle and shotgun stocks for a century or two.Walnut is such a beautiful wood. Where the heck is Mazaki sourcing his ferrule material from?
Just wild speculation but... maybe because it was a nut producing tree, hence cutting it down for wood would in many places be considered wasteful.Seriously, I've been wondering why walnut is not more common in knife handles.

Hard to get good Walnut imo. Probably also has to do with it being highly used in furniture and gun stocks. American Walnut isn't really nice usually, has quite some grey tone. Good one isn't cheap too. Caucasus Walnut is usually on the nicer side. Walnut is one of my favourite woods.Seriously, I've been wondering why walnut is not more common in knife handles.

The one I ate at Ramblas was outside summer temperature and the ones I buy online I leave on room temp before serving. Curate carves it off the ham at room temp.Did you eat them at the same temperature?
Most common mistake is eating stuff after coming out of the fridge, and just like cheese ham needs to get up to temperature to really shine.

Yeah, but it's walnuts. Those don't even taste good.Just wild speculation but... maybe because it was a nut producing tree, hence cutting it down for wood would in many places be considered wasteful.
Kinda similar to how slaughtering chickens used to be rather extravagant because you'd be killing off your own egg production.
Perhaps, but they beat the (!) off almonds. I don’t understand the popularity of those undistinguished fat little guitar picks. And almond liqueur? Aiee lab smells.Yeah, but it's walnuts. Those don't even taste good.

Entirely contextual; that is to say, how much have I smoked?Adjunct question: how many syllables in the word man?
And where it comes in the sentence! If the first word is "man" then 3 syllables.Entirely contextual; that is to say, how much have I smoked?
May-ye-uhn!And where it comes in the sentence! If the first word is "man" then 3 syllables.
If like "hey man, I'm about to whip up a puhcon crusted snapper feelay" then it's one syllable.
But "aw man" is 2 syllables
n. b in the Mid-lannic it’s 1 1/2 syllables (yes; that is a thing)May-ye-uhn!
