*drool* I want the purple heart ... please .. I'll trade #11 for it (no I won't -- yes you will ---no I won't ) .. purple is my thing ... must have purple ... don't care how much, must have ....
I have made a lot of knives with purple heart scales .. the freshly cut wood, if I remember right, is not purple, it takes on the purple color from handling and exposure. Ahhhh, what are we talking about LOL
I'll be squirreling away my pennies for 1 yr vaping anny! I ♥ the one behind the purple one
Bringing the mod pr0n to the current page:
Hrmm, kinda dead in here...
Well did a little bit of work on some mods this weekend.
Thought I'd post some pics of the ones coming up.

I'll see about making a couple out of cedar, not really taking custom orders yet till I get a site up and going. I did start one last night but wont link to it till I hear back from ECF regarding what that does to my suppliers status.
Also... I found an awesome exotic wood supplier only a half hour up the hill from me.
Couldn't afford to get a big selection tonight but I did manage to pick up a few pieces for bodies.

That front left one is Bolivian Rosewood.
I saw it and had to have some. Didn't know it was the most expensive wood they carried.
The Wenge was less expensive than it. But not to bad on pricing there. They had a fairly nice selection but no ebony.

Your lower grade gaboon ebony (black with much chocolate brown in it) will cost an average of $50 a board foot. Gallery grade gaboon ebony (jet black) will start around $75 a board foot.
Cedar? Man, every wood mod cedar story I've heard ends ugly. Epoxy coat that son'o'gun. -Magnus
I was thinking that cedar was a soft wood...might not do well in the long term, but I guess if was kept at home and treated nicely, it might survive.
I skimmed this thread and the mods look great. I am in need of a hardwood for a mod. Something that wont get nicked or cracked if it happens to fall out of my shirt pocket. I know you can't guarantee it won't get damaged, but there has to be woods that are sturdier than others. Colors or designs in the wood is not as important as the wood's durability. So Hogwart, can you help me out with selling me one of your mods?
Hi, all! I'm Mike's wife, Amy. Just thought I would join the forum and meet the people who have stolen my man! Haha, its good to see all the positive feedback he has. He is a very talented craftsman. Anyhoo...nice to meet ya all!
