    I'd say something, but my drool is preventing it.

    I had one re-grind from JC and it was a truly superb job, so I'm not surprised that the trend continues

    Now, if only I can get a decent photography setup (he re-used my crappy pix) and learn to take a good picture. I truly believe they look much better in person.

    That 5/8 wedge finished really well, I have a similar blade (notched W&B) that could use the same treatment.

    The Higgins looks particularly nice - what type of wood are those scales made from?

    Sorry Joe,

    I don't really have a good camera setup either. You are right though they do look much nicer in person

    The 5/8 W&B scales are Micarta, and they look incredible. I really like the grain look to them and that they should last forever is a +..

    I forget the other types of wood Joe used, but the grain is Fantastic on all three, the Wostenholm almost has a burl look to it, but they all all quite stunning.

    Thanks again Joe.
