that's gonna look good on a few blades.
never heard of that wood before.
 
Showed the pic to SWMBO - she says send it over, it should make a nice bowl. :eek:
 
Ha-Ha, add another SWMBO to the bunch . . . . . "Billy, that would make a great looking fruit bowl you could turn on your lathe" . . . . . :eek:
Can't wait to see how that pattern turns out on some knives as well . . .
Be safe.
 
After looking at it I decided to cut it to show the endgrain. This stuff is really cool. Its heavy as crap but Im sending it out this week to get stabilized since ebony is pretty unstable.
