Last Week for Free Burl Every Friday Drawing

E Fleming
Hello Mark,

Great idea and thank you for the opportunity! I've used a number of your blocks of fantastic wood. First time was your give away to folks trying out your wood. You sent me an incredible piece of spalted maple. Most recent purchase was about 5 blocks at the Pasadena Knife Show.

All excellent quality backed by top notch service! Count me in...

I received some redwood burl scales in one of the beginning knifemaker packs. They were beautiful and I tried to used them on my titanium knife, but just couldn't solve certain problems getting the recessed cavity to be the same shape as the pieces. Mostly I need blocks, such as the one pictured this week, as I tend to prefer hidden tang knives.

I have some spalted ash and some redwood burl. It seems like every time I intend to use them I feel like the blade I made isn't quite good enough to warrant some of Mark's wood. So I've only used one piece so far - and it isn't even the best piece.

I was one of the lucky original Test Wood recipients. I got a Buckeye block large enough for two bowie sized blocks once split in half. I used the first half for a chefs knife that was a christmas gift to my brother-in-law.

Haven't got to the second piece yet but I've got some Ironwood, Maple, and English walnut on the way.
