Title: Blades to go...
Post by: Stringman on April 13, 2014, 11:58:31 am

"Do you have any mahogany obsidian left?"
"Yep, a little."
"Can you make me a 5" blade, my uncle keeps trying to walk off with mine."

So after a little haggling we closed the deal. 2 blades ready to send, mahogany and rainbow, hope he likes em.
