I have a friend that is building me a custom Damascus droppoint hunter. By trade, he is a blacksmith and one of most talented artist, I know, and builds custom rod iron railings for many huge custom homes in Louisville, Kentucky.

He has been building nines for five years, and completed three classes with Gil Hibben. The Damascus knife that he is building me will include layers of AMG Mercedes timing chain.

I had some very rare Cocobolo that was stolen, and I need to find some skills that are appropriate for this knife.

Does anyone have any ideas, or any Wildwood they would like to sell?

I apologize for the typos, I’m dictating.

do you want stabilized wood (epoxy infused)?

these are a few dealers. not sure all these carry wood

I think I still have some African blackwood, if that floats your boat.

Get on the horn to some custom bowyers, Dick Robertson, Blacktail, Black Widow, etc. Those guys swim in exotic woods.
