I made 2 knives using ebony a few years back. Both were hidden tang, and I really liked the look and feel of the wood, although it was a bit soft compared to alot of the stuff I've worked with. I finished them with linseed oil and hand buffing. Two weeks later, both had cracked right down the middle.

Definatly have them stabilized.
