DRY Zebrano (Zebra Wood) Wood Block for Chef Knife Handles - 25x30x140 (CHFZEBRANO)

DRY Zebrano (Zebra Wood) Wood Block for Chef Knife Handles - 25x30x140

A block sized specifically for Japanese style chef knife handles. At 25 x 30 mm (1.0 x 1.2 in) in section it is close to the finished dimensions of a wa handle, so there is very little wood to remove — you are shaping, not hogging material away.

Bold alternating stripes of dark brown over pale tan running straight along the grain. There is nothing subtle about zebrano, and on a wa handle that is exactly the point.

The stripes are directional — orient the block one way for tight banding, the other for long sweeping lines down the handle.

Also works for puukko handles and pen blanks. The 140 mm (5.5 in) length covers a full size chef handle with room to trim, and the square-ish section drills cleanly for a hidden tang.

Each piece is selected, cut and sanded by hand so the grain is visible before you start. Air dried and stable, ready to work.
