Looks like quite a few scandis as well... Daughter's birthday on Friday so I'll check in late to watch the mayhem

No Scandi's. We put a pre grind on before convexing. Thats what it looks like.

Should have guessed, I've convexed quite a few scandis myself

Looks pretty cool. Is that a Hiking Buddy or a Bushcrafter? Hard to tell - that Bishop throws off everything.

Looks like there's some stabilized pinecone (?) heading our way!

 

[Joe Duder]

That's some real nice mojo right there!

Andy's got his mojo workin' that's for sure!

 

[xxkcxx]

What is that stuff?

 

[xxwjtxx]

here's one formal explanation:

"The Juma material is a colored thermoset plastic. It machines easily with a small chip, and polishes up to a fine luster, and will not mushroom. Juma glues well with Epoxy, and holds a finish as well. Juma is also Thermoformable. Submerge in boiling water and it can be formed and bent..."

I've never personally worked with / owned Juma, but folks seem to go crazy over it!

 

[Joe Duder]

I think that's a stabilized pine cone.

There was one sneaky pete made in with red version of the scale (I think, could be wrong) several months ago. That was a beaut, and I"m sure this one will be as well.

 

[Kirkwood]

I think Duder could be right on the pine cone.

 

[xxwjtxx]

Yup stand corrected; revising OP -- good eye gents.

I think Duder could be right on the pine cone.

That dark blue pine cone is friggin awesome!
