    What species of wood did you use in the top photo?
    Knowledge I take to my grave is wasted.

    I prefer to use cartridges born before I was.

    Success doesn't make me happy, being happy is what allows me to be successful.

    Really nice grips, oughta consider sales.

    Do a search on using Super Glue to coat your grips. All the better knife makers are now doing it this way. There are a few YouTube videos showing how to do it. Much more durable than anything else you can use, and super fast.

    I don't know what the material is but any figured wood is fine if you can make them one-piece style.
