Some different styles I make

[Joel]

First is a good ol boy in D-2/copper/stabilized walnut

Second is my #1 in 154CM/Velvet Tamarind.

Third is my snake skinner in 154CM and polymer clay.

Fourth is my Baby American Bowie in 154CM/NS and ivory micarta

....and so on.

That is some great looking work. Can you tell me more about the polymer clay? I don't believe I have ever seen that. Looks good though.

This guy can explain it better than I.

My own personal experience with it is that it is indeed flexible. I can snap a 1/4 inch scale with finger pressure. Meaningless when it's attached to a tang. I've smacked some hard with a hammer and yeah it did crack aabut so would a lot of materials we use. It's very easy to grind; Reminds me of the alternate ivory and polyester pearl I've tried. Seems to be sturdy enough for everyday use, but it's not something I'd use on a survival/combat style knife; at least not the scales. Haven't tried the blocks.
