Joe, I wanted that walnut from "fishingfool90" but forgot to bid and missed it.

Nice of you guys to create another sand lot for me to come and play in.

Charlie Bennica -- pernumbuco (and buffalo)

Chris Owen -- curly maple

Dan Pfananstiel -- walnut

Robert Hankins -- Redwood Burl

Anders Hogstrom -- Redwood Lace Burl

Jason Cutter -- Spalted Box Elder

Jose deBraga -- Lacewood

John Etzler -- Maple Burl

Ingemar Nordell -- Salix burl

Ruffin Johnson -- combo of Desert Ironwood, Walnut, Cocobolo and Maple

May add a few more at another time.

Simply ALL amazing Murray.
I would have bet a lot that the curly maple was a Hendrickson.
Every detail looks like Jay's work except the sheath's style differs a little.

Don, isn't he your younger Brother? If so, you can just beat him up for some walnut, can't you?

I agree. Great knives, Murray. Chris Owen does inlayed handles with the best of them. That Cutter spalted box elder handle is something else! That one really stands out.

Some awesome lumber in this thread. VERY impressive display Murray. Tough to decide which I like most. The Hogstrom is right up there.

Thanks for the views.

Those are some great chunks of wood! Good thread.

Here is a knife that I made from a particularly good batch of Ironwood. I got the wood from ADI and should still have some hid out someplace around here. It can make a knife look better than it 'wood' have..... Lin

Very nice, Lin. The guard and ferrule look like they took a few hours to do
This model is kinda becoming your trademark.:thumbup:

Yes, that is a nice Hogstrom, it looks oddly famaliar.

Here are some knives that gave me, wood.

The olivewood on this one is soooo much nicer than my crappy pic is showing, Anders uses some of the best woods I have seen.

 

[peterinct]

This thread just keeps gettin better. Quite an impressive display Megalobyte. Diverse types of knives and ALL works of artistic beauty!

Wonderful Pictures!!!!!

 

[Murray White]

great display Meg -- if I can't call you Shirley lol. Gee, you recognized the Hogstrom eh? It has a prominent place of display at home.
The second piece -- first dibs ok. that is terrific.

I'd also be more than happy with that Rhea knife posted by a couple of folk.

So many knives so little space left to display.

Gorgeous wood! The knives aren't half bad either! *wink-wink*

Question: Has anyone seen/made any handles of Ziricote? I've seen some with amazing landscape patterns that look more like stone than wood. It could be a great candidate since it's nearly as dense as some ebony I've worked with.
