Thanks !D DocJD I happen to have a leopardwood build on the bunch today. This pic is WIP but gives you an idea of what you’ve selected. It’s the rear part of the handle. The front part is padauk and the filet knife is wenge.

I'm looking forwards to trying out mine !I'm looking forward to seeing these finish up..................
Did David give an estimate on time needed to complete?I'm looking forward to seeing these finish up..................
Because these will be cut by HAI, and heat treated by Andy Pomorski, the time from when the steel is ordered to when the blanks are in my shop can be as little as 4-6 weeks, and I cannot remember ever having been made to wait longer than 8 weeks for these two service providers to process my blanks. I fully expect to have the investors' knives completed and shipped before August.
Please use your own best judgment ! Do what works best functionally for the knife in question .That being said, serrations on knife will look cool but they won’t cut very well. It’s already more standby than cutty, but it does cut. With serrations it will cut a bit less. I’m going to hold off on putting serrations on yours until you confirm you definitely want them in light of this info. Thanks!
My hand is itching to try it out, ASAP !Hey D DocJD I just finished yours and Notaflashyguybyanymeans . I’ll have them out tomorrow.
