Working #Koa is always a pleasure. It鈥檚 a very dense #hardwood and takes one hell of a polish. This is off the grinder with a padded 1200 belt. It won鈥檛 need much hand work other than cleaning up along the spine. The last thing is a few coats of pore filler / finish; After that they鈥檒l reflect light like a #catseye stone. https://www.instagram.com/p/B06PojfljCw/?igshid=pl96srx4uhws

This ones going to fun - just black and white. The zirconium bolsters up front will be jet black when finished. But! what I鈥檓 really excited about is the template I made to find the best figure in this sheet of ivory micarta. I chose the flat part. https://www.instagram.com/p/B0zJZZxF8XJ/?igshid=10hp6tbanp0f6

Check out the new up for grabs batch! This VPK has a single side micarta inlay. I made that piece last year as an experiment. I made a chunk of dark blue tissue paper micarta and left it exposed to the Florida sun long enough to build up that green crust on top. The idea was to replicate the age discoloration found on some old reclaimed phenolics. This was my favorite color and most dramatic of the effects. Considering the time involved, this won鈥檛 be available on the regs. 馃槀 https://www.instagram.com/p/Bz_DIL0lD2H/?igshid=1cvwjl84jsro

This one is starting to look finished. There are some details left and it鈥檚 missing the pocket clip, but I鈥檓 really happy with how this ones coming out. The mammoth was a learning experience, but slow and easy minimized the mistakes. https://www.instagram.com/p/ByinrJrF4rN/?igshid=17pe68o85owsa

Im making a custom vpk with mammoth tooth scales. It鈥檚 also the first flipper I鈥檝e made using bronze bearings. It鈥檚 almost as smooth as the ceramic ones, so I鈥檒l chalk that one up as a win 馃. I have some clean up work and shaping to do, but it鈥檚 functional! https://www.instagram.com/p/ByWP2LNFqs9/?igshid=17bibcw40h5qh

This one was a one off experimental piece. It鈥檚 a general use style, but I wanted to focus on some new handle geometry for future kitchen blades. I was inspired by @dsn_knives and @thompsonknives for the shape and pinch grip fuller. It came out well, but I want to work on sharpening up the geometric lines. https://www.instagram.com/biltsharp/p/Bvejd68FMa4/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=elkntkjz7vrx
