Krazy Maple Hunter!!
It just dawned on me that there are three people represented here in this knife, me, Scott Teaschner and Pete Crowl.
Of course, me - the knife, Scott - the sheath, and what you guys may not know, is that Pete Crowl, J.S., creates this spalted maple.
To do it requires Pete to cut down a certain sized maple tree at just the time of year so that it contains the right amount of sap.
Then he cuts it up, covers it up and baby sits it out in the woods for a year or more always keeping it at the right moisture, checking for spalting, etc., etc.
Then he has to cut it up into blocks, dry it, stabilize it, and so forth.
And I'm proud to have it on this knife.
Thanks, Pete and Scott.
1095 Hot-blued Damascus, hot-blued mild steel take-down fittings, stabilized spalted maple handle and Cape Buffalo/tooled sheath.
