Captain Chris Stanaback Knife Enthusiast Registered: 09/14/05 Posts: 12866 Loc: Central Florida	I have been guilty of having too much handle material. True story! Sphinx's Bowie is an example of (what I have called, for years) "Exhibition-Grade IW". Some of you old timers might remember these pieces. 8 1/2 years ago I featured them in a "wood-wheel" on this very forum, after I returned from the 2010 Blade show. Stabilization works well on many exotic woods but, in the case of ironwood, I prefer to wait for some time before I rush in and make RMKs with it. (I guess enough time has passed)... Stay sharp, Capt.

I have been buying Ironwood myself for the future. I can't let them be made into knife handles all at the same time, because it would be an expensive deal. I like these the best of the ones I have. ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ Edited by Sphinx3000 (11/28/18 11:33 AM) _________________________ I am an American born in the wrong country.

Those are some pretty blocks, especially the left one. I have been buying Ironwood myself for the future. I can't let them be made into knife handles all at the same time, because it would be an expensive deal. I like these the best of the ones I have. These are matching blocks. They are big enough for one Smithsonian and/or a 12-9 #14 Grind. _________________________ I am an American born in the wrong country.

Sphinx3000 Knife Enthusiast Registered: 11/10/17 Posts: 428 Loc: The Netherlands	Originally Posted By: Captain Chris Stanaback Yeah...but it ain't "Cracked"! Best, Capt. Chris I am gonna let my Ironwood dry for a few years, just in case I like the dark color better on those blocks you got. I hope mine stay the way they are, but that is not possible judging by your blocks. . Edited by Sphinx3000 (11/28/18 05:40 PM) _________________________ I am an American born in the wrong country.
