I finished these handles last week. Mr TomNewby ordered them for some titan chisels.

The timber is bloodwood, wonderful stuff to turn

Cheers,

the ovalness may be an optical illusion caused by there being two smaller and two larger sized handles sitting side by side.

i think they look brilliant!!

Thanks FC.

I plan to progressively order more as my Titan collection builds... a full set of bevel and firmer all re-handled would be nice... especially if these first four handles are anything to go by! :U
