Pap

*Cocobola
*Walnut
*Thuya Burl

Thanks,
Peter

I did not forget black palm, Mike. It had not been previously mentioned in the build.

iron wood with red spacers

or red stag

I figure there's nothing more American then a Randall knife so why not furnish it with a good US made wood:

USA Redwood burl
Curly KOA
California Buckeye Burl

Spalted Maple
Black Maple
Cocobola
Lots of great choices!

Hey, that one looks familiar!!! Any pics of osage orange?

OK, Crew:
We're down to 2 very clear contenders...and a third??? That's not so clear. First the 2 finalists (for sure) are:

A) Ringed Gidgee
B) Olivewood

The third needs to be decided between the "tied for third place" woods..."SO"..."ROLL CALL"...Vote for one of these woods "ONLY"!! All others are out for this build.

1) Cocobola
2) Redwood burl
3) Buckeye burl
4) Ironwood
5) Thuya burl
6) Koa

I'll let this run through the weekend and we'll make our final decision next week. Thanks.
Best, Capt. Chris
