Looks like desert ironwood...guessing.
I thought I read somewhere (and I might be totally wrong), that the only wood Tony would put on knives was ebony.
This is true, but only after spending 2001 with the Dali Lama (or was that the Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders...I keep getting them confused.)
Anyway, ebony is the wood of choice these days.
I am in temporary custody (with huge thanks to Mr. Robuck) of this desk knife by Tony in ebony. Mike helped me with my father's day shopping for this year. (For those who have been wondering, thankfully I only have one daddy.)
The sheath is by Paul Long here on BFC as sheathmaker.
looks like rosewood or maybe crouch walnut. I am interested . It just doesnt look like ironwood. But the supply was better when that was built.
May I send a copy of this pic to my daughter with the reminder that she too has but one daddy?![]()

Bummer dude :grumpy:
When I told Tony about this just now he said, "I bet he was wearin some baggy, ghetto pants."![]()
