All these blocks are large enough for 2 or more handles each. They were left extra large so you can decide which faces you like best for your knives. The redwood burl are the extra hard type of old growth redwood lace burl. The maple blocks were cut from old stock maple burl we purchased from the estate of an old burl shop. Some of the maple may have some bug holes, voids and softer spots in heavily spalted areas. The photos are all closeups so you can see exactly what you are getting. I am so sure you will love these pieces that they come with a No Questions Asked, Money Back Guarantee.
Please read this.
These pieces are natural wood. They have not been stabilized. These blocks were cut from wood stored outdoors under cover for several years (decades), so you should probably give them at least a couple weeks to acclimate before using. I belt sanded these blocks to 120 grit and wiped them with a very light surface coat of Minwax "Wipe On Poly" so you can get a better idea how this wood will look finished. It will sand off easily with out gumming up your sandpaper. When you fine sand and finish these blocks the figure and grain will become much more defined than what you see in these photos.
When you see pieces you like just post; "I'll take #s ......" and I will mark them sold for you. These blocks are too big for the small flat rate boxes but you can fit quite a few in the medium size box. US shipping via Priority Mail is $10 total for up to 10 blocks. Canada is $25. Our address for Paypal is itsaburl@hotmail.com.
