    I have to get creative on this one.

    Did he specify the type of knife? Maybe a chef's knife with a WA handle. You could heat color and inlay the left over pieces into the pre cut slots.

    The ironwood knife is ready for a sheath. Moving on to some amboyna burl. I feel lucky to be able to do what I love. Thanks to all that have served, and gave all for that freedom.
