Thanks fellas.

Yeah that 2 blade is one of my favs gmusic,super stout work horse.I'll snap a coulple more so you can see thickness,its a hoss.

So question for you and orvet,I had these in a safe deposit box for 15+ years sight unseen,oiled and waxed before put away wrapped in museum quality acid free paper,when I got them out the Ironwood is WAAAAY darker than when I put them away. Is that just a natural process for wood,is it something to do with a lack of light?? Just wondering if you guys had any thoughts on this.

any wood from the desert will absorb moisture or wax or oil ...long after you cut it down.
