Question: I had a pair of mesquite grips (not from you, no aspersions intended). They cracked rather badly under P+ loads.

Have you seen this in mesquite in general? If not, I'd love to have another set.

actually no i haven't, mesquite is usually a very Hard wood, now mesquite burl can be a little softer than regular mesquite but it's still pretty hard too.

Those are beautiful grips, Zane, even with the fact that I'm not a "fancy" wood grip fan.

The knife you propped them up on , a Buck 110 folding hunter unless I'm mistaken, brings me back a ways.

I have one that rode on my hip for 22 years in the navy. It's been around the world a few times, and got me out of my share of scrapes.

Nice knives! Got Sean one for his 16th birthday. He was very proud to have one just like Dad's. I'll try to scare up a picture of mine.

well you were close Tom, that's actually a puma game warden, my dad bought it new back in 73 and it was his EDC for about 30 years till he retired it and went to a case trapper.

but if you got a pic of the buck knife lets see it! he had one of those too.

So right!

I didn't even see the blade. If I had, I would have known. I had a Puma early on, too. Back in the late '60s I'd guess.

Yes, I've still got the Buck. Although I have many nicer and more expensive knives, the Buck will be the last one I ever part with.

They all look fantastic Zane.:)

I prefer a smooth grip, not a big fan of the stippling. I think it detracts from a nice piece of wood!!

thanks John!

and I know what you mean, while the stippling does aid in gripability it covers up too much wood.

I don't think I could do it to a really nice pair of grips.

Zane,
What is the going rate for Commander sized bone grips?

well I've got that set above on my website for $120 shipped and insured but if you're interested i'll give you a discount, they do have some very small pores which can't be sanded out but they cannot be felt at all and I will fill them with clear epoxy if you wish.

I really like them. I think they would look great on a stainless gun.

well they might be spoken for, i'm in the middle of a trade right now with a guy who owns a sawmill and he was wanting a blue set but he couldn't make up his mind which set of scales he liked better. I sent him pics of this set and the last blue set I made but i'm still waiting to hear from him, if he picks this set then I have some more Blue dyed Maple Burl that I can make you a set from, if not then i'll give you first shot at this set.

price would be $75 shipped and insured.

Interesting looking grips. Almost look like cork.

Don't the cracks and crevices weaken the integrity of the grips?

thanks, normally the cracks and crevices would weaken the grips but I filled them all with 1500 psi clear epoxy leaving just enough visible cracks to suit the customers taste.

What happened to that burl slab you posted? I'd like to get a set from that. Problem is I sill like the rattlesnake you sold me, so I have to buy another 1911 to put them on!

I still have it, along with 3 other mesquite burl caps, i'll do the drawing for the grip giveaway next week so there's a chance you might win.
