Title: Hawaiian Koa set
Post by: mastevt on June 13, 2015, 06:07:13 PM
Finally finished up the koa I brought back from Hawaii 2 years ago.  There was some question as whether or not it was Koa, but after a lot of research and looking at pictures, I've concluded it is indeed Koa.  I Made two matching sets, and a third set with Milo for a turkey call, and matching strikers, and paired it with a Koa Grunt tube.  The inlays are made from those penny stamping machines at the tourist center at Pearl Harbor.  the Koa 1 piece striker has a Hawaiian Abalone inlay on the end.

Glad you got it figured out with the wood type.  I wasn't sure myself.  These are beautiful.  Very nice work.
