Kevin Colwell Posted March 20, 2011 Share Posted March 20, 2011 Matt - the blade is great for a using knife, and the wood is truly beautiful. How did you finish the wood (if you don't mind)? kc please visit my website http://www.professorsforge.com/ “Years ago I recognized my kinship with all living things, and I made up my mind that I was not one bit better than the meanest on the earth.

Mat Maresch Posted March 22, 2011 Author Share Posted March 22, 2011 Thanks for your comments! I took the slabs up to 1000 grit, then oiled it and used the normal cotton polishing wheel with standard polishing wax.
