A few of these were a little more tricky but I finally got this batch all glued up and ready to go. @chad_sweatman_77 @mikep312 @js163012018 @kenoaaron @bthendryx @soleil.richard77 @z_mccullough @z_mccullough @wyattbanner @archdog83 @omen_precious_metals #banzelcroftcustoms #bighornsheep #canvasmicarta #copperedc #gcarta #fordite #antlerhandle #vintagecanvasmicarta #westinghousemicarta #sambarstag #burlapmicarta #brassedc #mammothtusk #mammothivory #carbonwaves #fatcarbonmaterials #ragmicarta #crazyfiber #cocobolo #carbonfiberedc https://www.instagram.com/p/Ckt4Gymg1BV/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I almost forgot to post this last night. This batch is currently tumbling in the stonewasher and today is handle shaping. @blindhog74 @filthy.edc @u_biz_ler1723 @baseball.bushcraft @mr.olight @dacia.leather @kaversont @omen_precious_metals #canvasmicarta #gcarta #ragmicarta #vintagemicarta #kirinite #kaoticartworks #kaoticresin #westinghousemicarta #micartamonday #crosscutmicarta #linenmicarta #carbonfiberedc #brassedc #mammothivory #mammothtusk #ebonywood #brazillianrosewood https://www.instagram.com/p/CkZI78SAi53/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

One of the best parts of @blade_show West was getting pictures from @sharpbycoop . He always has a way of making any color or pattern truly come to life in breathtaking detail. #banzelcroftcustoms #chollacactus #gcarta #westinghousemicarta #vintagemicarta #butterscotchmicarta #crazyfiber #dichrolam #utilityknife #edcutilityknife #everydaycarry https://www.instagram.com/p/Cj_ICExPnHv/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Another batch of MEKs ready to go for @blade_show West (along with a few customs). Not much longer until the show! #banzelcroftcustoms #utilityknife #everydaycarry #everydaycarrygear #edcgear #edcrazor #edcutilityknife #honduranrosewoodburl #mammothivory #richlite #linenmicarta #canvasmicarta #gcarta #vintagemicarta #westinghousemicarta #ragmicarta #chollacactus #kirinite #curlykoa #carbonfiberhandle https://www.instagram.com/p/CiawwQXgyzW/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Here is the second XL mega MEK I did a while back, this one has some crosscut Westinghouse canvas micarta, orange liner, and a handle big enough for the largest of hands to get a solid grip. #banzelcroftcustoms #banzelcroftcustomsmek #utilityknife #edcrazor #edcutilityknife #edcfixedblade #fixedbladefriday #edctitanium #titaniumknife #edc #westinghousemicarta #vintagemicarta #canvasmicarta https://www.instagram.com/p/Cdgf4wIuhtf/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Out of all the butterscotch micarta I've come across this piece of Westinghouse paper from @hawksnestcustoms is probably the most stunning. Just look at how bright it is. #banzelcroftcustoms #westinghousemicarta #papermicarta #vintagemicarta #rarematerial #vintagematerial https://www.instagram.com/p/CdZgGmHszk3/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Ringed gidgee is a personal favorite of mine, it's super dense and perfectly stable with an excellent pattern that isn't overly busy. This particular piece is paired with some Westinghouse liners and a vintage cheddar paper spacer. #banzelcroftcustoms #banzelcroftcustomsmek #ringedgidgee #australianwood #titamiumedc #titaniumedcgear #vintagemicarta #westinghousemicarta #curlywood #edcrazor #edccarry #edcknife #edcutilityknife #utilityknife https://www.instagram.com/p/CYe_1iUvtDj/?utm_medium=tumblr

While I wait on the stonewasher to finish the last batch of kiridashis I thought I would catch up on some bead making. Here we have brass, copper, bronze, titanium, and a couple in vintage micarta.. #banzelcroftcustoms #custombeads #brassbeads #brassedc #copperbeads #copperedc #titaniumbeads #titamiumedc #lanyardbeads #vintagemicarta #westinghousemicarta https://www.instagram.com/p/CXZO_EJgHUI/?utm_medium=tumblr

Who doesn't love layered vintage micarta, Each of these patterns will have a very unique look once shaped into handles, which one is your favorite? #banzelcroftcustoms #vintagemicarta #linenmicarta #canvasmicarta #westinghousewednesday #westinghousemicarta https://www.instagram.com/p/CXPJwbvvCJX/?utm_medium=tumblr
