By the way, you're right Duke - Koa is not cheap. It shows up on ebay from time to time. Here's a current listing for example:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/CURLY-KOA-BOARD-LOT-13-1-2-X-3-X-1-002-/261159003642?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item3cce4a25fa

I can't say if Brian's box had any Koa, might have been a random collection of other "curly" woods. Not sure if any of the scraps were big enough for handles.

I have a box of Koa on the way, it wasn't real cheap.  I'll have to cut it to see what the pattern is like.  Am I starting a list of people who are in need of koa?  I know Duke is in line.  I'll keep everyone posted, I'll let you know when it arrives....

Thanks Marty and Zav, it would be understandable if you charged a little more for exotic woods.
