Very nice indeed. Couple questions. Can you buy the knife blanks separetly and if so do you have a site?? Also how did you dye the wood and what is it??

I made the blanks from curly maple I planed to 1/8" then formed to the shape. I used transtint dye (green) in water and let them soak for 5 minutes. Maple doesn't need much time and they were already sanded to final shape so I wasn't worried about sanding away the dye.
