Well the batch is ready for pics to be shown! Most times when I'm doing a batch, one knife gets my lust all stirred up and I want to keep it. I don't, but I want to. This batch it was hard to pick just one!!! Check out the spalting on these blades too!

First take a look at these Bushfingers! The blades of three are 5/32" thick, the burlap knife is 1/8" thick! All spalted 01.

Ebony and Ivory. (Actually, the black wood is EIRW (more stable that ebony). Both have nat canvas and blue g-10 liners with matching nat can pins and bullseye filler.

1/8" bladed burlap. Same liner situation as above. This is a slicing machine. I always know true knife lovers when they take 1/8" thick blades.

As much as I want to keep that ivory paper micarta knife. And I do. This knife is simply gorgeous IMHO. Stabalized and dyed Maple burl from Shaugnessy over nat can, with nat can pins and bullseye liner.

This Bushcraft Karda is wearing East Indian Rosewood (EIRW) with nat can and orange g-10 liners and nat can pins and bullseye filler.

Check out the cool owl looking spot on the Bocote handle of this EDC. (The scales are properly mirrored, so you can see a similar shape on the other side too!) Orange and black liners, black pins and bullseye filler.

Wow!! All of those are beautiful Andy, and I bet that 1/8" Bushfinger is a slicing machine....but I think that dyed Maple one is one of the most beautiful knives I have ever seen!!

I like that layered look on those H.B.s, I wonder how green G-10 would look.
 
HOLY WOW! IS that lacewood hiking buddy up for sale? If it is I will take it!
What a great batch! You are a true artist sir!

Incredible batch! That 1/8th Bushfinger is really speaking to me but luckily it's gone as my bank account pretty much is too.
