A local woodworker, John Aniano was kind enough to give me a split of Goumi, and so I've detailed the process of replacing my rosewood chisel handles with more appropriate goumi handles;

Brian,

Nice doc of the handle build (as with everything you post). I had wondered how your Rosewood and IIRC Ebony handles were holding up.

Thanks Ken! They haven't been holding up that way now that I use them so regularly.
