Knife Handle Materials for Knife Makers
Shop knife handle materials in wood, bone, horn, mammoth ivory, G10 and other composite sheet, resin, cord wrap, and leather washers. Pick scale sets, rolls, pen blanks, sheet, or spacers for fixed blades, folders, and hidden tang knives, or stabilized wood blocks dyed purple, blue, green, raspberry, and other hues.
Two pages cover wood and animal materials. The wood handle materials page carries scale sets and handle blocks in species such as Bocote, Katalox, Olive, and Ziricote, plus a Purpleheart board. Its wood comes natural, stabilized, or dyed and stabilized, and the page also lists Presentation Grade sets, burl blocks in maple, alder, poplar, and beech, and a 19.00-inch maple tomahawk handle drift. Over on bone, horn and ivory, jigged and flat top scale sets in bone and camel bone sit beside buffalo horn scales, rolls, and tapers, sheep horn and ox horn scale sets, mammoth ivory scale sets listed by set number and size, and dyed camel bone pen blanks.
Engineered materials come next. The composite handle sheet page holds G10™ sheet for handles and spacers, textured G10™, black canvas and linen Micarta®, carbon fiber sheet, Ameragrip, and Damagrip™ as 3D Layered sheet, Liner Layer™ sheet, and scale sets. Resin and acrylic handle material covers VaporRez™ scale sets, blocks, and pen blanks, plus GripX™, Voodoo Resins™, and FauxTusk™ as both scale sets and slabs. XGrip™, Custom Acrylic™, Super Naturals™, Recone™ Stone, and glow-in-the-dark Embrite™ come as scale sets.
Wraps and stacked handles get two pages of their own. Cord wrap holds 550 paracord for handle wrapping and lanyard making, along with flat nylon lace cord for Japanese style wraps. The handle washers and spacers page stocks oval and round leather washers that stack over a hidden tang, plus copper, wood, horn, and Damagrip™ spacers for accent lines.
