Title: Ambrosia Maple Crotch
Post by: sticshooter on June 25, 2010, 09:55:00 PM

I GOT MY HANDS ON SOME OF THE BEST LOOKING WOOD IMO. AMBROSIA MAPLE! SMALL PIECES BUT VERY COOL. THE BLADE HAS SOME WHAT LOOKS LIKE BUBBLES. I SAND THESE OUT ALL THE TIME BUT THIS TIME I KEPT THEM. THE BLADE WAS GIVEN A ACID BATH FOR PATINA EFFECT. IMO LOOKS GREAT. WHAT SAY YOU?<><

Awesome! I love the bubble look. I had a few come out like that after quenching them and I left it like that cause it looked really neat. As always...another great STIC knife!

Beautiful knife, especially the profile.  That hatchet sure could use some work, though!
