Let customers choose their own burl pattern
No two burl wood handles look alike, and that is the selling point. Rather than sealing every knife in a box, lay several out in an open tray at eye level and let buyers pick the figure they like best. That small choice turns a grafting knife into something personal.
- Light the tray well; the swirls and dark eyes in burl only show under good light.
- Put a short card beside it explaining that burl grows from a knotted swelling on a tree.
- Place it with gift items before the festive season, and among grafting tools in spring.
- Keep the hooked blades folded in the tray, with one open sample nearby.
