KNIFE HANDLES/SCALES(Stabilized)
We're working on a new page of individual pieces that can be viewed and
purchased on line, but in the mean time, please take a look at a few photos
from our sales table at BAKCA show, Palo Alto, CA 2005 for an idea of how
many different stabilized and/or dyed
scales and blocks we have available. Even the show photos only have a
fraction of our custom knife woods. Please send us an email if you have
a specific request.
Stabilized figured/Burl woods have been
impregnated with monomores and acrylics to produce a dimensionally
stable wood. Some advantages of stabilized woods are they minimize or
totally eliminate:
