There's a snowdrift in my hand. 'Tis lovely. It seems to be a left-hander, which is fine with me. It stands on its chop side when not being held.

Pic to share:

Yay! :D

Very cool Cyn! I love the snowdrift on my hand comment, like you are a mighty goddess! :mrgreen:

Left vesus right. The left hand, there is less resistance. The right hand is met with some resistance. Like the opposing forces of nature. Perhaps this is intentional ... along with the "yin/yang" in the center of the kuodai?

It feels fine in the right hand, but more "at home" in the left. The swirl on the inside looks much like our yard did during this week's blizzard. 8)

Ya gotta love a small town,
I just got a call, "you guys home, I got a package here?"

Only in a great lil' town.
May be a day before pics but it's nice.
Rugged yet elegant at the same time.

Has anyone seen the beginnings of crackling yet? I sort of anticipated a rapid reaction on this one, but after using it all day, it is still a pristine white with no crackling at all. Its a great size, perfect fit for my hand, and a pleasure to use so far.
