cant unsee it now too, almost getting a sorta of The Scream vibe near the bottom pin thereI was pleased to corral this White Oak Burl off of the exchange last week and it got delivered today. Some of you know that I have this temporary insanity that causes me to see critters and faces in wooden knife figuring. This one is off the charts with that, including a lions head, a skeleton's face, water birds, and a few other scary critters. It might as well have been labeled wild beasts and I wouldn't have known the difference.

I'll bet somewhere, way back, your ancestors were involved with naming star constellationsThe pile side. What I see differs as the knife is rotated. Did I say that I love this knife?
