Yew or Bog Oak needed for project knife

[plastic-ninja]

Wanted for cash sale or could swap.

I have just bought a lovely blade from Dave Budd and need a piece of Yew for the handle.
Ideally a bicoloured piece about 150mm x 60mm x 60mm.I know that's big : I have massive hands
and I'm not that good a carver so I need some wiggle room!!
Let me know what you're looking for cash or a swap.I have lots to offer for the right bit of wood.
My second choice of wood is Bog oak but would need to be a really nice grain to do justice to
Dave's blade which is a thing of genuine beauty for sure.
Cheers , Simon.

Have a look on the bay. There's always lots of yew wood for sale there.

I have but the pieces seem to be quite small and
my paws are large.I have managed to acquire a piece of bog oak
and I am carving at that but yew would look nicer I think.
Cheers Simon

Ill be wanting money, Im afraid; I need it to fund a visit to Durham Uni

Thanks Tengu.
Cash is available for a nice bit no problem.This is an
extremely beautiful blade and needs a fitting haft.
Thanks , Simon
