Man!!! I saw the snakewood first and almost lost it and then I scrolled down to the bocote. I'm laying on the floor right now in a daze. That knot in the bocote is freakin awesome!!!! I really like that grind on the blade too.

Hard to believe I pick that set of bocote up for $5 and still have enough left over to do another knife. Unfortunately I didn't make the blade...just bought it, but one day!!!!
