What can I say about this set? I am at a loss to properly describe the impressive look these three pieces lend to the eye. Sleek, shiny, and deadly. You peer into the ipe wood and you see detail that looks as if it behind glass. But no, it is the ipe wood itself. It is extremely unusual to be able to make a full set because this wood is so hard to come by. Much less in a large enough piece to make a full, matching set. Very rare.
Not recommended for contact against other woods. It most definitely will crack a skull, but remember that these are natural products and they can break and may have internal flaws no one can guarantee against.
