Now that's nice! I've always been a fan of Osage Orange, or hedge Apple as we call it here. Mighty pretty wood. Great job in the knife.

Thanks, I thought this was going to be darker to start with because of the color it was raw, oil made it brighter. I normally put a thin coat of stain on them to "patina" the handles
