Damascus Diamondback Passes the Chop Test

After handling chop tests on yellow pine and epay with ease, Scott decided to try this Damascus Diamondback out on a sweet gum that needed chopping down.







It passed the chop test with flying colors and still shaved afterwards!


This Diamondback will be hand-sanded, dressed in African Blackwood . . . 


. . . and then shipped to France later this week. 


Thanks for looking.
