    John,

    With you Bad Economy Line offer I am even more keen on the EDC Kephart. I am torn between the Tiger Stripe Maple and the material used for CBryant's Baby Kephart. What material was that? If not in the list of materials, what would be the extra fee for it?

    Thanks, sir.

    Maple burl, I had forgot to add it to the list, but it is standard.

    Yes they are, but sometimes there can still be slight shrinking with some woods.

    Here is a picture of yellow G-10 and yes I used my little JK SWEDC knife to chop up some wood. I love this knife and the yellow G-10.
