Two Cherries chisel with skateboard handle, 16 mm

Unique handles made from discarded skateboard decks. Each handle is unique!

When a woodworker and skateboard enthusiast ("2ndlife") glues together discarded skateboard decks and turns them into blanks for chisel handles, it sounds strange at first. But the result is absolutely unique and worth seeing! Two Cherries has taken on this unusual idea and donated the blades to these extraordinary notebooks.
