Drop Point Skinner with Tassy Black Wood and Juma Gem
Phil D from Broadford, Vic shared some photos this week of his last project.
This is a drop point skinner with nicely contrasting handle scales.
Phil used Tassy Black Wood inside Purple Juma Gem, with brass pins and red spacers. Nice contrating colours in a sturdy, solid looking result.
