Greetings my fellow wood addicts! I make knife handle materails and am always looking for quality wood and wood burls. Im hoping this form will increase my network. Im currently looking for some Black Ash Burl. If you can help please let me know.
 
Welcome from the Gulf Coast of Texas. Now that's a teaser. Telling us you make handles and not giving us pictures, lots of pictures. We love pictures1

Some of my work. Im trying to figure out how this form works so hang in there with me untill I can figure out how to post. Im assuming that I can not reply to my own post untill I have full permissions? Is there a how section available for us newbies?

Mark, Welcome from South Texas! Like Barry said, show off some pictures of your work! Tony
 
Nice work! If you go to the Rules section that covers a lot of it. Keep going, it's pretty simple. You'll get the hang of it soon.
 
Welcome from Tucson, Mark. I have a couple Flintknapping friends that live in Hamilton. Even visited them once. You live in a beautiful location. Show us your knives.......
If you would be interested in Mesquite and Catclaw burl, I might be able to help you out. One of those knappers is selling his winter home here in Tucson, and will be heading back to Hamilton in a couple weeks. He could transport it to you, and there would be no cost to you. Consider it a 'Forum Warming' gift. .............. Jerry (in Tucson)
 
Welcome from California! Lots of burl seen on this site. And quite a few knifemakers. You should not have a problem finding wood! Chuck
 
Howdy Mark, welcome to the club....

Thanks that would be great! I have never worked with Cat Claw Burl. I dont make knives just handle materails. I do have many friends that make knives including Jish Smith in French Town.

Great! I am leaning how this form works so not sure how to look at what you have amd negotiate a purchase. I read the rules twice and just trying to make sure I dont violate the rules. We have a handle busness but the purpose of this form is to find folks to source wood from.
