Sure do.. I put it on a W&B 13/16 chopper, but you shaped it better

I'm thinking about getting a small belt sander. Nothing like Bill's Burr King, but something to speed along the sanding and help even it out would be nice.

I'm thinking the same but am tapped out for cash. Still, it's only like $70

Oops. Did I get the name of the wood wrong? I got the wood from Jim, so he would know...

That looks like the bubinga to me. The padauk is redder with a less-pronounced grain. I could be wrong, though.

No, I think you're right. The other wood is much redder. This is more dark brown.

Great looking scales and blade. I like the traditional shapes, I am a form follows fuction type of guy.
I really must start doing better on my blades, yours and several others have put me to shame.
