Those are awsome looking grips! If you could put the name of the wood by each one, that would help us learn a little more about them. Plus when we order, we can simply give you the name of the ones we would like.:)

Very nice stuff!:rock:


Noel

[Olympus]

I post these on several other forums and include the names of the woods. Most members here are also members on the other forums, so I just took it for granted. The photos are also in the gallery of my website and they are named there as well. There's probably close to 200 images there. But I will try to start including the names here as well.

Thanks for looking!

I also would love to take that two tone 10mm CBOB off your hands some day ;). But something tells me your not going to let it go anytime soon :D

Gorgeous grips,

[Olympus]

Thanks Ryan. Honestly, the CBOB is going to be one of those guns that I'll break out every now and then just to keep people drooling but will be one that I'll keep until I die.

Thank you for the various names... are these posted available??? If so send me a PM please!




Noel

[Olympus]

Thanks Noel. Right now I'm not making anything that is for sale. I'm trying to get caught up on a backlog of special orders. And to be honest, most of my customers special order as opposed to buying directly from the site. This allows them to have full say in how they want their grips made.

But if you "like" us on Facebook, I post updates about when new grips are being listed for sale on the website. This gives FB friends first dibbs on new products.

That's two-tone desert ironwood and it is very difficult to find like that. It comes with a high price too. I have all of my suppliers on the lookout for two-tone pieces like that, but they just don't come around very often.

I know what you mean. That's one of those sets that I would have liked to have kept for myself for a while. They looked really good on a stainless 1911 knife too. They left a mark on me in more than one way. They took a nice piece of the tip of my thumbnail while I was making them. Luckily I jerked my hand back before the sander got to the meat.

Man, would a set make a very nice Karma gift!!!!:D:D

[Olympus]

I'm been rolling the idea of a set for a Karma gift for a while now. I'm trying to get my inventory built up for a gun show that I've got a table at in October, so every set counts right now. Things usually pick up pretty heavy before Christmas and they tend to slow down after the first of the year. So I will probably end up making a set for a Karma giveaway after the first of the year.

Or if the forum has any kind of charity, I'd donate a set for a raffle or something too.

Thanks for the kinds words. I've got to get caught up on a bunch of orders first. It's probably going to be April before I can start putting new grips on the website.

I used to do a lot of special orders, but learned quickly a few bad apples spoil the bunch. From now on it will be "what you see is what you get". Hate to be like that...

Alan,
Do you think you have access to a piece of wood like this? I've seen spalted maple and similar wood grips with black etching like this, but only in pictures, and never for sale for a Vbob. It's the most pleasing grip to my eye of all, and I would not only like to be put on a waiting list, but will pre-pay if that would help any.

[Olympus]

Well, as long as you don't call me Alan again, I think I might be able to find some more of that spalted maple. :)

I can't commit right now because I'm so behind, but ask me again in about April and I should be ready by then.

[Blue Ridge]

Sorry! I thought I saw your name (maybe even upside down) earlier in the thread and must have mis-remembered! I'm in no hurry, April (or later) will be fine. If you'd like a deposit or full payment, PM me your info and I'll get it to you.

[Olympus]

No problem. I was just messing with you. Better not send a deposit this soon or I'll forget who it was from or what it was for. Just shoot me an email or post in April and I will get you taken care of. Also, if you use Facebook you can like us there. I post updates on the Facebook page so you'll be in the loop as far as when I will begin taking orders before everyone else.

Some new satin finish desert ironwood burl that I've recently finished.

[Snipersnest]

Man, that wood is absolutely beautiful!

Some new satin finish desert ironwood burl that I've recently finished.

Those do look VERY nice.

Are any available???

[MajO]

Awhile (30 minutes) ago, I was speaking with a Mr. Kelly at the Colt Custom Shop. He tells me that I may get my Commander back with the tactical package in February. In discussing the grips he asked me if I had ever seen any in Irish Bog Oak. I have looked at all my links and can't seem to locate any. Any of my COTEP siblings know of any grip makers offering Irish Bog Oak?:confused:

[Olympus]

Man, that wood is absolutely beautiful!

I was very impressed as well.

[Olympus]

Are any available???

All of those are spoken for. Trying to play catch up on previous orders. I doubt I will have any available for the general public until at least April.

Never seen it used for 1911 grips. That's a pretty rare request so I doubt any other grip makers have any in stock. You might email a few and see if they. An source the wood for you.

[Yankee101]

Olympus, you are a master of your craft. I find myself staring at your creations over and over again. Truly beautiful and unique color options. Its hard to pick my favorite but I really admire those Gray/Ivory Box Elder Burl grips you posted awhile ago.
I know you're swamped and not accepting orders but if you ever get some Black/Ivory Burl in any wood species keep me in mind. I'd love to order a couple pairs.

Thanks Yankee. I can usually order the dyed box elder in those colors. Just email me around April if you haven't found anything by then.

[Snipersnest]

Outstanding grips. You still gonna make us wait til April to place orders????

[Olympus]

Unfortunately. I've got about 50 more sets to complete in order to get caught up again. It will probably take that long. I was also transferred with my job, so I'm having to deal with moving to the opposite side of the state, sell my house, and get moved. Got a lot on my plate right now.

[Blue Ridge]

I still maintain that these: http://i787.photobucket.com/albums/yy151/brownscustomgrips/P61400572.jpg are some of the prettiest grips I've ever seen. I *really* want a set as close as you can get to them for my Vbob. If sending you payment in advance would help at all, please let me know!

[Blue Ridge]

Yeah, I'd be more than happy with those as well! (3, 1, & 2 in order of preference) if by the slightest chance some of those would be easier to come by!

Honestly, I've got more work than I can handle so payment in advance wouldn't make things easier for me.

Unfortunately, I think I have decided to eliminate the special order option completely. Some people have left a very bad experience with special orders. It's nearly impossible to locate wood that looks similar to something I've done in the past. I've got too many other people wanting grips and I don't have the time to scour my sources in an attempt to find that "perfect" set for someone.

[Olympus]

If you happen to get a pair like these that you don't have a customer for, send me a note and consider them gone :D Steven

As soon as I get caught up with my past orders, I will be making grips for the public and ironwood will be used frequently. If I had a dollar for every email or forum post asking for me to let someone know when such and such is available, I could retire early. I'm not trying to blow people off, but I honestly get so many emails and requests from people that I can't remember who wants what. I used to be able to do, but it seems my business has blown up this past year and I'm swamped with orders.

My recommendation, "friend" us on Facebook and get a heads up when new woods are going to be added to the website. Or starting in April, check the website on a weekly basis to see what comes up.

[Olympus]

Yeah, I'd be more than happy with those as well! (3, 1, & 2 in order of preference) if by the slightest chance some of those would be easier to come by!

I'm not going to be searching for pieces that are similar to ones I've made in the past. I offer a truly one of a kind product and that's why people choose me. I would have some unhappy customers if all of my new products were based on something I made in the past. My suppliers know I am only interested in the unique pieces, so I will continue to make one of a kind sets.

The woods that I use are not something that can be mimicked or copied. I primarily use burls, and burl pieces are like snowflakes. No two pieces are alike. Asking to find two snowflakes that are as close to matching as possible would be a tremendous job. So is trying to find two pieces of burl.

That's kind of what I was thinking. I figured it would be better if I showed examples of past stuff rather than try to pimp stuff that is for sale.

But I won't complain one bit and will happily follow suggestions. I was generously given my own section here and have had a great experience here. I want to continue and will do whatever is asked.

[oldrifleman]

I was in NO WAY wanting to stop the wood pron that is reflected here. I seem to have started a mess that was totally un-planned. I for one love to drool over some of this stuff and dream of having some of it one day. Steven

Just keep doing what you have been doing, I also like to dream looking at the grips!!!:):)

Clyde, go back to sleep ole man!!!!:D

[Blue Ridge]

Yeah, by all means, post what you have, old or new. I'm sorry to have asked for some that looked like ones you'd made before, I just thought they were some of the nicest I've ever seen -and exactly like what I would want for my Valor.

That sucks... I hate spending money on cars...

[Olympus]

Me too! Seems like we've had a rash of car issues recently too. Water pump, thermostat, plugs, and a coil. And I think I'm starting to hear the low moan of a wheel bearing starting to go out. Forgot about a bad cell in a battery, so add a new battery too. All on the same vehicle...

[AutoMag]

I just picked it up from the dealer, ball joints and a hub assembly and rear diff service, $1300.00 and I get the parts at cost there!!!:eek:

[Big Smoke]

In the past 3 years, I've had to have my transmission rebuilt ($2500), a junk yard rear differential installed ($1500), and a junk yard engine installed ($2300). And now I find it needs a tune up, and a few other bugs with this engine. My next car is going to be a bicycle. :p

[oldrifleman]

It was me and I stand ready to snag others I can find. I have no (very little actually) shame. Can't wait to see them in person! Steven

[Olympus]

I think you will be very happy with them. I almost decided to keep them for myself and put them on my CBOB.

I've been putting the money towards a stabilizing system so that I can do my own stabilizing and dying like you see on the colored box elder burl grips that I make.

I'll send you a pair to test next time if you'll take a few pictures for me then.

[Olympus]

Thanks.

I really hate to let all these beautiful grips go to other people, but I've ran out of 1911s to put them on. Wish my FFL will hurry up and come in the mail. Trying not to buy guns until I can buy them at wholesale. :)

[AutoMag]

Good deal on getting the FFL Olympus. I wish I had of kept mine when I had it back in the 90's!!!

Are you going to open up a shop?

[Olympus]

No plans for a business location, just going to keep it home based for a while. Maybe do some online sales to preferred forum members at better prices than LGSs. ;)

[AutoMag]

That sounds great!!:)

Where I live the city makes you have a store front now in order to obtain your FFL. Not a Federal law just a city ordnance.

[Olympus]

When I lived in Kansas City, they had a similar ordinance. Just another reason I was glad to get out of the city and back to the country.

Got any of those gnarly desert ironwoods left?

[Olympus]

I can't keep up with all the magwell sizes and names and what they all mean. I keep my grips simple. The bottom edge of the grips are flush with the bottom of the actual pistol frame. Anything that comes up over the bottom edge and they won't fit. Anything that sits lower than the bottom edge and they'll fit but have a gap.

Those are really colorful, nice. You planning on making up any more Desert Ironwood, the gnarly ones? If you do, I've got first dibs on em'.

[Olympus]

I'm always on the lookout for exceptional ironwood. But after I did that big run, it seems like every knife and grip maker in the country started buying up all the ironwood. So not only is the supply of exceptional ironwood low, the demand has caused the price of the wood to increase a lot too. It was just a good time for me to move on to other woods. But I'm always keeping an eye out with my suppliers.

Those a pretty too! Trouble is, I don't have a bob. Man, I'm just batting a thousand ain't I?

I've been having a lot of people requesting to see more bobbed grips so that is why. Almost made them regular style. Just shows you can't accommodate everyone. Maybe next time...

[Snipersnest]

That's okay........I'm a very patient man.

Those are pretty, but then I'm partial to blue!

[Olympus]

Thanks Sniper. I was hoping to get more blue out of the wood, but as I started contour sanding, the blue went away and more tan came through. Such is the way with wood though.
