    Worksharp 3000

    I should add that I do not necessarily agree with Mike Pekovich here. I think he is a hand tool purist which I can appreciate. He certainly did have a strong opinion about the Worksharp!

    cherry question

    Cherry gets a rich warmth with sunlight. Walnut gets a washed-out dull look. I put my cherry pieces in the sun sometimes to quicken the patina - it's a beautiful look IMO.

    It might take a while Claus. I just moved my shop from Maine to VA and everything is in boxes now. I'll need to dig them out and then figure out prices. They were all made by small independent blacksmiths, so these are not cheap. Just a head up with these caveats.

    Is there any use for Nelly Stevens Holly trunk?

    Holly is the whitest of all woods. I use it extensively for period inlay. Ideally the tree should be cut in winter and the ends immediately sealed, as it is very prone to fungi which imparts a bluish tinge to the wood.
