This one is something special

This stunning Sailors Fid is made from 2 of the most expensive woods in the world Masur Birch & Snakewood

The Masur Birch has a stunning almost 3 dimensional effect whilst the grain in the Snakewood is showing just why it got its name.

A tapered wooden spike called a 'fid' or Fid pin,Marlin Spike, is the traditional splicing tool . Used by sailors when making and repairing ropes and lines. Used to make knots, pry knots apart and make rope splices on sailing ships. Made in the style you would have commonly find on sailing ships.

As with all my exotic pieces this Fid comes complete with a certificate of authenticity and can be signed, dated, and numbered by request. This is a treasure to last.
