    Some new sgians soon!

    Just picked up a new load of timber that I'm pretty excited about:
    Banksia (Lacewod to my US friends!)
    Alpine Blackwood
    Sheoak (absolutely stunning timber)
    Mallee Burl
    Apple
    Lemon
    Pistachio
    as well as a load of antlers, 2 of which are begging to be made into a matched set of dirk & sgian. Looks like I'm going to be busy out in the shed for a while

    Trust me, I know exactly how you feel!

    I often get excited over a chunk of timber, a piece of bone or antler, some leather, metal scraps etc
    It takes a craftsperson to really appreciate to potential of these kinds of materials.

    I hope you have a great time crafting your sgians!
    Wear your kilt proudly, but carry a big stick
