A few random notes:
- I really like Karelian Birch... but it is a bear to photograph. This is one of several blocks that I picked up from Mark at Burl Source a few years ago. It has a warm butterscotch feel to it.
- The cord wrap was sunk into the handle and then hardened/stabilized with West Systems epoxy.
- This sheath comes dressed with a matching piece of birch taken from the same block as the handle.
- I did a WIP-ish type thread on this build over in Shop Talk. If you're interested, you can check it out HERE.
