Beautiful knife, that spalted hackberry is the nicest I've seen, is that all natural coloring from the spalting?

Thanks Scott - yep, that's all natural coloration. As a matter of fact, I slabbed out the green wood, dried it, and had K&G stabilize it too.

Love it. Especially that you did not dye the wood. I'm not a fan of green or red or blue wood (unless it has pocket up the color naturally).
