Stabilized Curly Koa

[Walkintom]

Hey Andy,
How can you tell the difference between stabilized and natural once it is on a finished knife.

Do you recall if the Curly Koa at blade were Natural or stabilized?

 

[Fiddleback]

You can't tell really. There is really no reason to stabilize Koa. The ones at Blade Show were unstabilized, I bought that block of stabilized stuff at the show.

I think koa actually looks better unstabilized. It has more flash. Stabilizing clouds the curl in my experience
