Wooden Wednesday - Traditionals only please

[5K Qs]

I wonder why my rotation schedule has me wallowing in wood this week? Just luck of the draw, I guess.
A couple of Rite Edge budget knives: a rosewood Miner and a curved lockback Barlow with mystery wood.



A MAM Iberica from Portugal, beechwood handle, I think.


Union Jack, my rosewood lambsfoot from A. Wright & Son.

I heard somewhere that Buck is buying ebony from a guitar builder, Taylor, because they actually planted a bunch of ebony years ago so they wouldn't run out.

Or, maybe I dreamed it?

I’m not sure, but I’m guessing that someone may chime in with some solid information for you.

"Life" would be mighty boring if not at least a little bit "crazy".

Note: "Crazy" and "Insane" are NOT the same thing.
If "Insane" you get locked in a empty rubber padded room and forced to wear a "self hug" jacket (and possibly a helmet).
If "Crazy" they leave you free.
