Have any of you folks heard of the new carbon fiber Boeing is using in the 787?

It's referred as Lightning Strike

Well, it's not just for airplanes:D

It's been used lately by some big time custom knife makers like David Broadwell and Steven Kelly.

The stuff is fairly hard to come by, but I was fortunate to locate some.

This c/f is very difficult to photograph, but let me assure you that the human eye offers the best view of this stunning material.

I thought I do a couple teasers pics.

I'll get some more out when the sun comes out again (we are getting hammered today with 10" of snow!!:eek:)

Carbon fiber isn't my favorite material out there, though this is very cool. Has a more distinctive look.
 
I've seen that and am thinking about using it for a couple of Damascus Mules. Pricey stuff, though.

That takes CF to another level, Barry! Nice score, for certain.

Let's see it mounted on a CRK. . . .

Getting one of these scales is like getting married..........

The material I got is going fast. If you're serious, better chime in fast;)
