New Folder Off the Bench

Jeff.
Looks like one that would be a solidly held knife.
Recently there was a thread on wax finishes and concoctions of wax and other stuff.... Some used a wax on Ironwood, some didn't.
Is yours a straight finish and buff or do you finish it with a wax or an oil or something?

Real good looking knife!

This ironwood came out pretty good. Sometimes, it gets weird on me. These scales are flat as flat can be. Zero curl. I use Watco danish oil on woods these days. I used to use polyurethane oil, but I ran out and forgot where I got it. I know what you are thinking, and yes, I meant to say polyurethane OIL. It came in a generic white plastic bottle, and you wiped it on like you would any wiping oil. So anyway, other than the Watco, I use a couple coats of Butcher's Bowling Alley Wax, and spit shine it in.
