Hey guys, i havnt been posting much here lately.

Ive gone full time recently, and ive been working a lot, focusing on instagram just due to the much wider market.

But dont think for a second Ive forgotten my roots. I started here on the bladeforums, and I wanted to show off a little of what Ive been working with lately. For perspective, I started my wood business about 6 years ago selling off cuts of curly wood and some kingwood I had bought from a guy on craigslist.

I am not going to talk about any prices or sales in this post, this is just showing off. Anything relating to money should take place over email.

Very cool!
 
I always like (and occasionally drool over) your pieces, Ben. Thanks for sharing.

If/when I run out of my maple, I know who I'm going to call....

I have been moving my wood into the new shop. I am running out of space for wood. It really comes home how much wood you have when it all gets in one space. I got to stop buying wood!

Whit the virus looming , a couple weeks ago I started to make a list and number the knife handles I had thinking if something happens to me my wife would know what it is and what it would be worth. I was thinking I had somewhere between 400 and 600 knife blocks...... I just boxed up number 2200 and still have a little more to go. Now I just need to find 8 grand to get them stabilized. :cool:

The $8000 is an investment! Now you can go into the handle material business and compete with Greenberg. Turn that 8 grand investment into 48 grand! Ha!
