That maple burl is gorgeous!

Have you found that folks like to keep the shape of their handles and knobs the same as stock shapes? Or do you have a selection of more ergonomic/whatever shapes you like to use?

Finished this last week but have not had a chance to get a photo. Black walnut case for some Damascus knifes. Miter jointed, neodymium magnet closure, padded and felt-lined lid to hold everything secure and the blade support is cut so the blades are suspended and not resting on the cutting edge which would dull them. The original case was warped, cracked, would no close, misshapen and general junk. The knifes were made at a coffee plantation from coffee tree limb trimmings for the handles.

Dave,

Stunning work! I bought a knife from you years ago and it's frequently used and proudly displayed in the hobby room. Thanks!
