Here are a few Manzanita burl knife handle blocks and scales. Guys, you probably know that manzanita is very hard and is prone to cracks/checking. It's the nature of the wood. I've tried to not list pieces that can't be fixed with a little CA but if a crack is going to ruin your day......maybe let these go. ; )
My pics are taken dry and wet to show the grain. The first dry pic will be the "worst" side showing bark pockets, cracks, etc......if you like the first side, you'll love the second. : )
