Very nice. A gorgeous contrast between the sapwood and heartwood, and a very graceful form!

I will second the great contrast thought! You are definitely getting that curve thing down!

Ken, this may be the best of your NE to date!

Thanks

This batch of NE's I did try and pay closer attention to getting the leading edges unifrom. I like it, and it is a smooth looking piece, but I am still drawn to the shapes that arent as much ruled by things being equal.

Good job! You did justice to a nice piece of wood.

Ken, I agree with JK here. If you still have your first NE, which I think I remember, your forms and skills are really improving quite well.
