Thanks Dylan, the Blackwood Spear is without any doubt my favorite NF barlow....A wonderful pair, James! That NF 77 is a real beauty, probably a dream configuration for me: 77 Barlow with Ebony/blackwood covers and a spear blade. A match certainly made in the heavens...
A nicely run-in Dixie Stockman you show today Ron, what a great pattern it is, wish they'd do another batch soon.
Thanks, Will
That looks like a knife that has seen some solid use! I love how Osage tends to change/evolve with use and exposure.
Will Power That's a stunning piece of wood. Is it walnut?
joeradza Alan, that is a mesmerizing piece of burl. I love finding "faces" in wood grain, and I can see quite an angry fellow in your piece.
My Osage handled @JK Knives Bluegill is absolutely singing in this sunlight.

Wood Wednesday is getting away from me. Varying shades and species of dark wood, Macassar and Gabon Ebony, African Blackwood, and the 42 Rendezvous 2012 Lock Back is a really nice, deep American Walnut.
