Here is a Knife I made for my SIL...He's into Zombies......He plays those Zombie games on the puter all the time,so I thought he would like this one to protect him and my Daughter and Grandkids:lol:... I made it from an Agricultural disk (the flat ones not curved ( the one shown) They are right...
Davin....I have heard they are similar but complete different species. The "Genuine" Lignum Vitae, I have read where they use them for bearings and they outlast Brass or Bronze. That's about all I know.
Thanks Guys for the comments.. Davin.....I just used a couple of coats of Danish Oil and then waxed the handles...I got these off eBay, just type in "Argentine Lignum Vitae knife scales or handles" and
you should find some scales. Argentine Lignum Vitae is so hard that they really don't benefit...
