This is my new personal knife, a daily user for the fall/winter season here, as a dogsledding guide. I of course intended it to be really nice, but rest assured it will be used hard.

My own incredibly rare Isabella masurbjörk ( the only of it's kind in the entire world) paired with brass, moose antler, reindeer antler, and 300 year old oak that was reclaimed from the bottom of Lake Superior.

And here is number 6 of the 6 I've done, for sale

And here is number 6 of the 6 I've done, for sale at the symposium...or after if it doesn't sell there.

Moose antler, birch bark, blue leather, spalted fisheye figured björkvril and standard björkvril.

This sweet santoku, in #80crv2 high carbon steel, is headed to @willowtom in washington, where he'll put it to good use all over tarnation, not just at @setsunai.noodles

Handle is brass, spalted yellow birch and flame figured, triple dyed yellow birch (all stabilized). The saya is birch burl with a wicked awesome madrone burl peg. Seriously...that peg though 😍

This is a custom order #väkipuukko, or "extra large" puukko. Shaped similar to a #huggare, but a little smaller. Brass bolster with moose antler, #koivuntuohi (birch bark) and stabilized fisheye figured #björkvril

Well, it's not too bad for my first kuksa. I really aught to try carving one from a green block of wood....methinks things get harder when the wood is dry...

This petty is available. The blade is 80crv2, handle is spalted yellow birch with a wee bit of chatoyance and triple dyed fisheye birch burl; all stabilized. The saya is spalted birch as well, with a pin made of a hand whittled birch peg and a itty bitty piece of madrona burl, from the PNW. .

First come first serve!

First time making my own axe handle, and I used flame figured yellow birch. Loimukoivu!

Yellow birch is remarkably hard, compared to the other birches. Apparently it used to be used for wagon wheel spokes.
