Andy, I have seen you mention swapping to A-2 in the past and even seen a couple of pics of 1 or 2 of your knives done in A-2. But normally all I see is O-1 (not that that is a bad thing). I will shortly be in the market for another knife and thought I would pick up another one of yours. I currently own a older nessie (before you took orders) and it is great. Would like to possibly get the new knife in A-2. Right now thinking about a Arete of Tressasourus convexed in A-2 (if possible). I would like to hear your opinion and others about A-2.

The holdup with A2 for me is that I've just figured out how to control the spalting process on 01, and haven't been able to repeat it on A2. More experimenting is in order. The spalting on this latest batch of 01 is so good its hard to give that up.
