I am experimenting these last days with epoxy glue and different materials and I must say: epoxy is dirty sticky stinky stuff! I don't like it at all! :)

Wow, that's awesome. So creative and inventive. How does it feel to hold and play with?
Thanks .You made my day ;-) .... it is my fourth backup blade ;-) .... so i don`t use it to much ... the handle feel smooth and little bit softer but nothing to much different then wood. When i sweat color is changing to dark , ;-) ,when it gets dry then it`s back like on the photos .
Next one will be full leather handle ... i have so nice leather for it .... i really looking forward to make it ... but still waiting for kiri wood for core of the blade itself ... i have some difficulties to get it..... but i hope i can get my hands on it soon ,so i can finish this blade .
i will made video of course ;-)

I want one!!!!!! Just inboxed you... Dude, if I could get some letters in that handle!!! I noticed from your first video to the one you just posted your handles shape has improved. For my taste I like the narrow finish at the top of the handle, on the blade face. I guess it's what I'm used to...even the slightest flare at the top of the handle distracts my grip. Great job

I have different types of handles and also next can be added ... i prefer the thicker finish on top ... but it is a personal preference .
Thanks anyway .

Hmmm has a innerforce alc but with koto outrr plies blade has already been made???

I have a custom built blade like that. Two, actually; I clipped one and the builder repaired it for free, and I ordered a second one.

Both have a conical handle, one a bit narrower on top. Both have a kiri core with inner alc, limba subplies and koto outers, one with an anegre outer too. The second one has a slightly heavier handle (zebra wood, beautiful to behold) and is a few g heavier but feels lighter due to the subtle balance shift.

It’s a wonderful composition for off players. In all positions.

How does it play?

If you mean my blade, well, it’s still very recognizable as kin to the Viscaria. Its power curve is much more gradual.

The errors creep in when I tire out. When in position on time, I have near absolute control, whatever I choose to do and with many options. Since playing with it, everything else feels like a step back in one direction or another.

that's awesome.
How did you come up with it? Did it just pop into your head or..?

If you're asking me... well, ever since returning to the sport I tried a few things. Common denominator was that I'm drawn towards slightly harder outer pliers (koto, anegre, walnut). I liked the feel of the TB ALC when hitting, but didn't like the thin handle and the pronounced head-heaviness. Comparing blades of a similar composition, I arrived at the Andro Treiber K. Played with it for quite a while and still love that blade; yet the merciless kills came at the expense of a slightly too high error rate, expecially in service reception. It's a family of very lively blades.

Having also sampled the power curve of inner layer composite blades that seemed a promising approach. I also longed for a conical handle shape, that has inexplicably gone out of style. Even apart from the handle, no blade like that is mass-produces as far as I know (the DHS N301 perhaps the closest one). That's how it came to be that way.
