The bloodwood is a stock wood for the Mnandi but I love the depth of the red. The picture does not do it justice though.

Just wondering where you guys are purchasing your handle material from? And what size stock are you needing for these handles?



Any interest in spalted pecan crosscut.....

I have never heard or known some of the woods used in the photos here, something new to learn on BF.

Stunning patterns and finishes on these knives.:thumbup:

I think this looks good even though it is a wood insert.
