[Manaresso]

WOW!!!

I didn't know this material. As I see it is used mainly for bowling balls! I think that is quite hard for a intensive use but not so hard to work with. Very, very interesting.
Have you a link for the supplier?

By the way, many compliments for your knives!!! I like specially the first one. Many compliments again.

the material is mostly used for pipes - for the Piece you take in the mouth :-)

ist a natural material made from chautchuk. the last 50 years ist only to get in a black, maybe in a lightly Brown colour.
and in the Moment the test to colour it are finished.
there are a lot of nice colours available. from "really fine and nice" - till totaly "junky" :-)

the problem, the calculation will be ready in about 2-3 weeks. than i can tell the Prices for it and put it in my webshop - www.schanz-messer.de

to work with it, is very easy. perfect polishing is no problem. only, only - you must Close your nose :-) it smells a Little like Elefant-shit :-)
