These are many years air dried. Hopefully, the pictures show size with the rulers. Most of the pieces have an angled cut on one edge just to be clear. I'll post pictures in groups of two, dry and misted with water. $42 plus $11 shipping in the U.S. only.

@chatometry Just curious if you have worked up the last pieces that I sent?

Not yet. I purchased a tornado planing bit but I got some ripped grain on other figured wood, so I am still unsure about how to plane that koa...

Jay, @Sirfishalot Since you posted first here is a group that I put together for you. Four slightly bigger pieces. The minimal thickness is .4" - .5" thick. Rulers for size. Same deal $42 plus $11 shipping. Here are the first two pieces dry and then misted with water.

@robert flynt Here are the six pieces that I put together for you. These have the figure that I personally like the best. This group is $47 plus $11 shipping. Pictures like above are of dry wood then misted with water.
First two.

The first one on the left is what I'm looking for. It will show figuring well on knife handles but the others won't show enough figuring on such a small area.
