I am so busy I don't even have time to get to the computer these days.
I generally like to make more of a nuisance of myself than I have been lately, but I just really don't have much spare time outside the shop these days.
However, I did finish up a knife with some new material that I thought was extraordinary.
I saw Mark Farley have some of this on his site and I had to have some. (Since I got the first block, I already ordered another one!)
It's called Silky Oak.
Every direction you look at it something else is going on.
It moves all over the knife.
It has these striations of iridescence in it that sparkle and do all kinds of cool things.
And it's just solid as a rock.
Anyway, I had a moment and wanted to participate a little bit here before the long cold winter sets in and I have to shovel my way back and forth from the shop.
