It was. And I hope he isn't pissed at me, but I have rent to pay.
 
Ha! You gotta pay for your gear in a timely manner when you order a custom! Kinda hard to feed the kids a nice hard knife - especially one with old wood on it! ;)

It looks great, nice snag Adam!
 
Osage Orange, Hedge Apple, Horse Apple, Hedge Row, Bodark, or whatever you call it is an American hardwood that is bright yellow when you cut it and ages a really beautiful golden brown. Its hard as all get out, and its thorns are long and tough enough to pop tires. It makes a great bow wood, and knife handle.

Thanks for the reply. Money should be waiting on you. Can not wait to see it. Hopefully this will be one of many.

Thanks,

Adam
