Stablized big leaf maple; I got the idea for using stablized wood for chisel handles from Dave Jeske's Blue Spruce Toolworks display at Woodworking in America 08 in Berea, KY. Here's how they turned out.:D My first attempt at socket chisel handles.

Wow, those are sweet-looking, George. :thumb: I bought my first used socket chisel a while back, and it could use a new handle. I may just have to give the stabilized wood a try. How big was the blank? I'm assuming it's bigger than a pen blank?
