These polls seem to get sillier and sillier towards the end. Let's just vote for what we each think is the most attractive choice.

Taken this very morn on the eve of decision...in natural light....I simply plonked them down ...no quarter given or taken by either....OK its antique amber NOT actual Copperhead.....seems like a different name to discern between the two is the only way to tell them apart...
So...who would rather go to the gaudy Copperhead carnival sideshow with a greasy hotdog and deep fried cheese on a stick? ...and who would visit the understated, classy, stately, Art Gallery where a calming amble through a darkened hallway leads to a pleasing sublety of deep lesther lounge chairs and cigar box undertones....?

I really like the 66 calf ropers. Wish I could have gotten more than one of them. Yours are excellent examples, and a great representation of the beautiful covers our forum knife will have no matter which color is chosen. Thank you for showing them. And "plonk" is fantastic. Gives the same idea as " plunk" but with that great resonance from "honk." Thank you for that!

I don’t think my dark brew will make it! I am debating sticking to my top choice to the bitter end or going with one of the top two…

Dark brew is a long shot, it might still be the best choice though (I'm personally team hemlock all the way, but dark brewed is my second choice out of the browns). Go down with the ship, or join the winning team? Not an easy choice to make (I usually opt for going down with the ship).
 
On the last poll i stayed with white even when it was clear that it very well could come down to one vote. I didnt want either one enough to be the cause of making people except a knife they didnt want.


in this case, i switched from sepia to hemlock because id much rather have hemlock over something so uninspiring as the copperhead

No offense taken guys...but I am just working with what I have seen and my experience shaping dyed bone. If I go by the pictures I've seen of hemlock jigged bone, maybe it will end up a little more like this (basically black everywhere except near the bolsters and some edges.

But if I go with my gut feel, based on how sawcut is shaped compared to jigged bone...I still think it will turn out more like my first attempt.

I honestly don't know how else to mock this up...maybe that is a good thing and we will all be surprised by the results. I trust Bill and his team.

If Hemlock wins I really hope it comes out like this rendering vs. the first draft of this rendering. I haven't used my Spring Green Saw Cut 77 yet and this is more like that with black on the beveled edges.
 
It sure would be nice if we could get a long pull on this. I just hope to not have a poll on it. I can see it now, someone posts a picture of a cute girl smiling (nail nick) and followed by some funky person with a straight lipped expression (long pull). “Which would you want”, they ask. As if it has any bearing on the subject.
