Bubinga - Handle Scale Sets

Bubinga knife handle scales are a premium choice for custom knife makers looking for a combination of exceptional strength, durability, and natural beauty. Known for its pinkish red to reddish brown tones and striking resemblance to rosewood, Bubinga offers a refined appearance that gives finished knives a professional, high-end look.

 

Renowned for its toughness and stability, Bubinga has been used in specialty woodworking applications where strength and visual appeal are equally important. Despite its density, Bubinga is easy to work with, making it an excellent material for shaping, sanding, and finishing custom knife handles.

 

Each book-matched scale set is carefully selected to provide a balanced grain pattern and a symmetrical appearance on your finished knife. Whether you are building an everyday carry knife, hunting knife, or a one-of-a-kind custom blade, Bubinga provides the durability needed for demanding use while adding a distinctive natural aesthetic.
