    I just want to take a moment to commend everyone refurbishing old blades, you guys have been doing a tremendous job recently; and to invite you all to check out some work that Gary and Jason have been up.

    Thanks for the praise X, it always puts a smile on my face knowing people enjoy my work so much Just a little correction though, the scales on the T.I. frameback are actually brazilian rosewood, not olivewood. I'm extatic to know that the edge on that wedge was up to snuff, to say the least Sure was a beast to hone, but I learned a lot from that one.

    Thanks for the correction, Jason. I'll make the change. I guess the tone of the wood convinced me that it was olivewood so much that I didn't feel a need to verify it. Just goes to show that one shouldn't assume to much.
