[Ken Hill]

Osage with some coloring
Used the steel wool and Vinegar stain, then "sooted' the call with a lighter, rubbed in with a paper towel
CA finish

I love the cocobolo and maple combo, but something about that osage one gives it a feel of having been around a long time. Very creative with the sooting and finish treatments.
I wish I had a reason to need one, but not a hunter. Don't get me wrong...I like eating what you all catch...I just don't have patience to catch it!:cool:

[David E Keller]

Nicely done, Ken.

[Faust M. Ruggiero]

I look forward to your posts because your photography is so appealing. Nice work and great photos. They make me want to take a walk in the woods.

Really nice combos, Ken!! I love the coco and burl, and I agree the OO looks aged - neat!

You really should take up photography as a profession!!:D:D:D

[Ken Hill]
