Don't Toss Your Old Vinyl
In a few days I am hopeful to be able to show you how I used an old record album to make a black spacer in the next knife handle. I realize I did not snap a picture of it yesterday. This is a prepicture of sorts.
This is a native American technique from the old trading post days. Black Onyx was not always available, but vinyl record albums fit the bill. I can't wait to show you how kool this looks. Maybe I will be back here tomorrow with updated pictures. But, maybe I won't. I was in a snow drift today that took me a half hour to get out of. There just is no place to park that I am not getting into such a situation.
