If I recall, that one went for about $300.

Lumber costs have gone way up this year, so another one similar to that, I’d be asking near $500.

No moat. Would not buy.

I’m good. I have an end grain bamboo board I’ve been using for years. And it has a moat.

You make some nice stuff. I love the box you made me from scraps. What a great hobby.

OK make me a $500 one.

This particular piece is in Virginia. Summer 2015. Looks like maybe from the same batch of wood. That’s the term you woodies use, right? Batch of wood.

I keep all my best doodads in it.

The humid climes in the commonwealth are a constant concern. What is your favorite rust inhibitor? I have been using ammonia free windex weekly, and as you noticed, it’s held up well.

Dude it just sits on my dresser. I don’t do anything to it.

It is a cool piece. A DAB original.

Not a chance I would spend that much money on a knife that I cook with. I’m not cheap when it comes to knives, but you reach a point of diminishing returns at that level.
