I have a question that will not stop rattling around. First we saw bolsters of metal, antler or Mother of Pearl, then synthetics like micarta.
Why not wood bolsters on a fixed blade?
Like Osage slabs with Bloodwood bolsters. Or Ironwood bolstered with Indian Rosewood. It might be a nice way to use up smaller bits of very nice burl.
Just curious if there is a good reason I do not see this being done.
