Thread: I love this stuff (WIP)

Some of you are probably familiar with my affinity for green dyed burls.

I recently received a project to put some scales on a custom knife made from the same material I made some razor scales with.

It turned out pretty good. Ill post up some images later if anyone is interested.

These images are just a work in progress as they are just the unfinished slab, but the images are after shaping and sanding.
