Thank you, Mark!
Ron, a scraper would indeed be excellent, and better! I basically use a certain rasp I have like a scraper. It all depends on how you hold the rasp, if it is at an angle.

Rachel, those are very, very beautful handles, the one on the right caught my eye in particular (what a beautiful grain).

Rachel, I really like that handle and you know rust is my favorite color for the thong. Beautiful work. Is the Granadillo hard to work?

Rachel, this really is very fine - and, like the others, I greatly admire the handle!

Ben, thank you! We need to trade whips one day! (I am serious, think about what kind you’d like, and I am certain we can fund a good time for both of us). Your work is top notch!
Mark, thank you! Rust or acid dark brown I think are my two favorites. I love the Granadillo, it has an interesting grain and is quite heavy. It can be weird as it has a twisty type nature in the grain but is also very Oily and heavy. It is one of my favorites. It nearly glows in some places.
Mr. Robert, thank you!
