Thanks. Someone just picked up 6 handles tonight. One more goes out tomorrow to CKTG Memorial Day fundraiser sale.

Next week I will be busy restocking. Maybe this time the tojiro will get new shoes.

Thanks! No need to be sorry. Moving big chunks of inventory is a high class problem.

I am going to update this thread periodically.

Please tell me what you like, even if you are not ready to purchase. I love to hear from everyone on color/style preferences.

Thanks
Ben

I know this is an older thread but I like number two in the first photo. I would like it even better if it were a D handle. :mrgreen:

Thanks! I find it interesting how polarizing purpleheart is as a component. People either love it or hate it.

# 9 was my favorite and now I own it ( or a copy either way ). Looks even better in person.

Did you pick up dakota’s Knife? I have another round of those handles to finish, except this time I have the ferrule made from Honduras rosewood.

I did indeed. Still love the handle. Makes me want to experiment a little.

BTW I also tried one of those laminated wood handles I mentioned before. You were right. It just didn't look right. Straight into the fire pit. :)

I am happy you like it. Even happier it inspired you to experiment.

Ha. I have thought about how to make an all endgrain handle, but the experimentation has never turned out quite as well as it should. I thought if it was done right it would feel great and be very solid in the hand.

I thought about that too. De-lamination was my biggest concern with it. I thought about stabilizing may help but haven't tried it yet.

You go first! LOL !!
