Finished them up today. Took longer than I thought they would. Wife and I had a nasty bug last week. Worst cough I can remember having for a while. Doc said, "just something that's going around". Crazy.

Anyway, I'm happy with these. Guy hasn't seen them yet so I hope he is too.

    Look great.  Can't tell that they weren't CNC machined.

    Really nice Steve, what is the wood?  And do they have a finish on them?

    Thanks to all.

    Cal, it is osage orange and it's very aptly named. Very hard and very dense and a very orange wood but it is a dream to turn. The handles don't have finish on them at this point. I actually prefer not to put finish on my tools handles as I don't want them slick and the oil from handling them will provide a natural finish.

    Those are fantastic. Bet you were glad you didn't have to mount the blades. I love the Bo Doc too and just got another piece at last meeting
