    Man. Stop making the pictures so pretty. It's all shiny and reflecting colors and stuff, thought I saw the green of some leaves from somewhere in the blade. Great tone in the wood. Shiny table too even. A knife so pretty I wouldn't want to use it.

    Btw, questions - so bamboo pins are pins that hold out well I assume? And what are the liners of, that you're using?

    The bamboo holds as well as anything else I've used (brass, bronze, copper, silver nickle, stainless, aluminum). The liner material is something I buy from knife making suppliers.

    ^ Thanks. Really nice looking job. Oh also - I assume you make primary and secondary angles here? No scandis or chisels?
