Just finished this one. This was my first time working with thuya. It's different than any of the other woods I've worked with - likes to clog up sand paper.

OAL: 8"
Blade: 3″ cutting edge, 5/32″ CPM154, Heat treated to 61-62 HRC with cryo treatment, Hand finished to 600 grit
Handle: Stabilized thuya
 
Nicely done. The blade finish looks good and I am really digging that wood. I have not worked with that before. May have to try some.
 
nice knife. :)

A tip someone said recently is to use a bit of mineral oil with thuya to stop that clogging. :)
