I dearly love Koa but aside from being hard to get it is mondo spendy. I treasure the one board that I have.
Thanks, Curt

Isaac, you never cease to impress.
Beautiful, per your usual standard.
Thanks for posting the pics.

Looks like art. But I know it would be a joy to use as well. Beautiful
If it wasn't for last minute, nothing would get done.

The grain is wonderful, and I think the filled voids on the top really add some character.

You used grain direction the way that the best of the gunstock makers do, to give strength along the lines of use, and generally with the flow of the design. That's beautiful work.

Indeed, the grain follows the design perfectly. That's what caught my eye too. Beautifull.
