Ah, the guy that gave it to me said that it is laburnum... he is an arborist so of course I trusted him completely

 

Yes ithe handle is carved, sanded and oiled.

 

Ah,that might have been me,I think you had some yew & laburnam,but I cant remember,still got some nice lumps of laburnam,& some oak, ash,holly,elm, if you want to rummage through some new piles just up the road mate.

 

That handle looks superb too.

Hi Geoff

 

Hows tricks?

 

Ah,that might have been me,I think you had some yew & laburnam,

Ah if you gave me both I must have mixed them up, mea culpa.

I am ok for a week or two as I just scored this cherry

Mind you I have not tried elm, what is that like to work?

And I am a huge fan of yew now :-)

I can get you some more yew anytime,the elm is lovely wood but will be hard.

 

All is well Mark,hope the same for yourself,give us a shout if you want more wood,it will be sitting for most of this year.
