2010 Blade Show Preview

Very impressive line-up Ed. I love the wood handle on that damascus fighter - never heard of "Wandoo" before, but it looks great. And the laminate hunters are all gorgeous - particularly the stainless over damascus version.

Ed, those are some gorgeous knives. And that folder is wonderful. The colors on the walrus scales are incredible.
 
Thank you Gentlemen for the very kind words! I'm taking a short break right now from all the leatherwork (my eyes are starting to cross, and my hands are aching.) But the leather won't get done by itself. :)

Well, breaks over....that mean old boss of mine is cracking the whip! :jerkit:
 
That's a very nice line-up! I love the damascus fighter and the titanium folder.

Gday fella's,
Wandoo is a Eucalypt, native to the south west of Western Australia. This piece was unusually highly figured for Wandoo. More common around the wheat growing areas and seems to get a lot denser/harder when found out in the Goldfields areas closer to the desert.
How did you end up finishing it Ed? I normally only go to 400 and wipe with LinSpeed but it didnt want to absorb too much of it.
Cheers Bruce
