Members lel Posted March 30, 2015 Author Members Report Posted March 30, 2015 Thank you, guys, for you kind words. The knives perform very well, even better then I expected. Now I prefer push cuts when cutting leather and they are easier to do than dragging a utility knife. If I started all over I would grind a round knife much thinner like I did with a skiving knife, which has no secondary bevel. Spalted maple is a wood that was affected by fungi. It introduces discoloration and dark lines, also makes wood very light and soft almost like a dried sponge. It required stabilization, and guys at WSSI did a great job at it. They also suggested to add a yellow (gold) die during stabilization process to slightly enhance the colors. Quote
