A few off the bench.

Been playing around with double and triple dying with my Cactus Juice I use to stabilize my woods. Two model 104 and a 121 and a 118. Spalted pecan, on high carbon steel.

Wow!

Some of your babies bro.

If I had known how good you can make spalted pecan look, I’d have made sure you got it earlier than you did.

Agreed. Jank, you’re killin it with the spalted stuff!

Those look great Bob...especially like the two on the left....

Nice!

Thanks all, greatly appreciated.

very beautifully done Jank, makin a brother jealous over here working on all that beautiful wood

Thanks Bro.

Very nice. I just got a couple from him and they are really impressive. Thanks again B J

Thank you brother.

Beautiful work.

What does spalted mean and what is stabilizing the wood and what does that do to it? I’ve only ever heard those terms here in this forum.

Thanks
Charlie

Charlie this requires a long answer, I'll post some links about both.

So nature does one, you do the other.

Right, the nature part is easy... the other part is time consuming and costs $$$$.

Beautiful knives as usual.
