Stabilized Wood - Independent Evaluations

In June 2009 we sent out a few dozen pieces of stabilized wood to knifemakers ranging from the Hobbyist to Master Bladesmiths. These knife makers agreed to use the stabilized block on one of their knives. As their knives are completed they are publishing photos and candid comments about working with the stabilized wood. We are using this information so we can keep improving upon the wood we have to offer.

The results are being posted at bladeforums.com. Use this link to go to the postings. Or go to http://www.bladeforums.com/forums/showthread.php?t=657727
