    Joe had me hunting for a burl during my cutting. I found a good size one and after cutting it in half it looks pretty amazing, i know why people look for them now. Iv got one on a tree out back here at home thats bigger than a beach ball. That red oak is beautiful . My helper was so amazing today, helpful and very well behaved. When we got home i told Whitney to let this guy go on amazon to shop for a Nintendo DS game. He was pretty pumped up!!! Hes telling me rt now to tell you its Super Mario 3D land. “Hey Kamo you wanna go do firewood again” “yes Dad! do i get a game again “ :rofl: :lol:

    Woodwhore I hope you start a thread with lots of pics when you make your knife handles. I have a blade sitting around for 10 plus years and it would be nice to see how it is done.:yes::yes::handshake:

    Alright, little hotter today but really nice wood. That bright white is Couple pieces of poplar. That wood is definitely cherry after further investigation . image.jpg

    Every time he plays that game he’s gonna think about helping his father with wood. When he’s a grown man he’s gonna remember the time his old man bought him a game after they cut wood.
