Some of the Reelfoot metal reed calls I've made over the last couple of years

Here's a sampling, to get some activity in this sub-forum. I'm not likely to get back on the lathe much before finishing my boat, but will try to add some more calls to this thread from time-to-time just to keep it active until I get back to making them.

First is my favorite wood, cocobolo. This shape was inspired by an old Rip Fanning call - have just always liked the shape, and this is a shape I frequently turn as a result.

This is a set of walnut calls (curly claro, curly claro, NC black, and claro, left to right). The last has an African Blackwood insert one of my favorites for inserts). These are all tung oil finished.
