has anyone tried using the " real rosewood" bois de rose. I purchased a piece a long while back. it was a lovely hue of purplish, reddish, and shades of darker reddish. now this piece looks like a piece of crappy plane dark cocobola.--what gives?? i checked the search engine under knife sales and nothing came up--so im guessing its not that great of a handle. Man i wish it retained its original color. Now instead of being special on a mid level knife- its turned o a practice wood. --thanks--marekz
