Very nice, the silver pins, the filework, and the insane combination of woods...
Have you considered a thin spacer separating the woods? I'm thinking a white spacer between them might make the construction more obvious, that bloodwood almost blends in and is lost... __________________ A good friend told me one time about forging "What is there not to like, you get to break all the rules you were told as a kid, don't play with that it is sharp, don't play with fire, and don't beat on that" Wade Holloway See some of my work. |

I have and I'm slowly getting there. I've considered thin fine silver sheet, but in my experience metal does not hold up as well as wood in this form of construction. I'll think up something.
The bloodwood does blend in, I'm bummed about that but the yew was not long enough by itself otherwise it would have been only 2 woods. |

Truth is I didn't even notice the blood wood. I love it but I would of put a little deeper finger groove to make sure it didn't slide up the blade. Beautiful yew it almost looks like a snail or something.

I think its enough choil. I use a lot of Finnish knives and have yet to have an accident. Great looking knife Eli. You've been busy cranking them out and they are all gorgeous.

I agree with the others, it took me a little to find the blood wood. But all and all love it, and I REALLY like the inclusions in the yew. Excellent super clean work as always.
