Title: Kevin Cantrell strikers
Post by: Sanders153 on May 11, 2021, 08:35:46 PM
Hey fellas,

I recently acquired a Kevin Cantrell striker. This particular one was a 2nd place winner of the NWTF Great Lakes Call making competition this year, and came with the medal. This is the first I had heard of Mr. Cantrell's stuff, and it runs very, very well on my Daybreak Green Slate.

Does anyone else have experience with his strikers/calls?

What laminate wood is that?  It looks nice.  Very similar to Harold Fowler's design.

The seller said it is the new style of dymondwood when I asked him.. Yeah it does look alot like a Harold Fowler one, that was what attracted me to it at first. Harold Fowler made me one of my all time favorites I have ever had. A snakewood/Osage orange. I use it almost exclusively on my ceramic

I have heard of him but do not recall seeing any of his stuff before. Nice looking striker.
