Chief does exotic wood dance to influence Captain. _________________________ See Ya, Chief RKCC CM-037 RKS #5154 If you put off following The LORD just remember......They don't serve breakfast in hell!

thevalueman Knife Enthusiast Registered: 02/04/08 Posts: 2840 Loc: Georgia	the material size is BIG....I'm not say'n anything, BUT I don't have anything in my stash that size....maybe the Capt doesn't either....maybe he does...it's not something that would necessarily be "stashed"....BUT I'm not privy to the Capt's stash...just an observation....PLUS the cost of the material....I'm sure no one expects the Capt just to throw it in.... The new shop wood is fairly nice...actually very nice....other wise we will need to do some shopping, then get approval, then buy....then, then, then...makes you wish for some Ivo....darn it!!! almost said the "I" word...speaking of.... https://guitarpartsandmore.com/productCategory.php?Resin-Ivory-trade-R-Grade-Knife-Handle-Blocks-140 :-)Rocky _________________________ Rocky Whitaker RKCC#25

Chief Knife Enthusiast Registered: 12/05/05 Posts: 5414 Loc: Baton Rouge, Louisiana	The Captain has it or can get it i'd bet! As for the cost that's what I meant by springing for it. I appreciate this forum & the people here, so I don't mind spending a little for this one. _________________________ See Ya, Chief RKCC CM-037 RKS #5154 If you put off following The LORD just remember......They don't serve breakfast in hell!

Captain Chris Stanaback Knife Enthusiast Registered: 09/14/05 Posts: 12865 Loc: Central Florida	The Captain does, "indeed" have it..."BUT"...(There's that word again)...I won't use Osage ever again. Way too soft and "dings" up worse than maple. If everyone who bought numbers would throw in $5.00 each, we'd have the wood covered. Best, Capt. Chris PS: I was down at Gene Beal's shop, this past week, just to see how much handle material I have there. Over 2,000 pieces...and more than here in The Captain's "STASH"...Just sayin', CCS PPS: It was already stabilized when I bought it...9 years ago...Black French Walnut...!!!

pappy19 Knife Enthusiast Registered: 10/31/07 Posts: 7436 Loc: Garden Valley, Idaho	There's stabilized Osage Orange out there and many purist Bowie makers use it, Bill Bagwell for one. If we are making a one off, none like it anywhere.
