    Oversize Wolverine with Some of the BOSS' Black Ash Burl Goodness!

    This Wolverine Knife is for a customer in Canada and I am real happy with how it came out. This was my first time using CPM S35VN and it seems to take a very nice edge like the S30V, however, it is much friendlier to finish which is nice. I will definitely be using it in the future. Here are...

    Stone Washed Bubinga 6" Chef Blade

    I have really wanted to do stone wash finish for some time now and about a month or so ago I got a tumbler and started messing with it.

    Santoku Kitchen work horse

    Recently I finished this up and gave it to my wife. It was immediately her favorite kitchen knife. She unwittingly helped decide the handle materials one day when she noted that the maroon linen Micarta matched the purple burl eyes in her favorite Camphor wood. I finally am getting around to...
