Default Different kind of grips

Well I haven't had much time to make many grips with work and all! But I finally got to make a few. Just wanted to share with you all!

Here is a set I made for my wifes SP101,out of Walnut!




A set for my brother in law's Blackhawk, from walnut!


And a set for my Vaquero from the same Walnut!




and I had to make a set for the 1911

Very nice work Sparkie.

I was looking at the different woods you use.

The Ironwood grips are shocking! Keep up the good work.

You the man Dale! All three sets look phenomenal.

Your wife has a nice gun, I'd be afraid of your wife, very afraid...hahaha

I like your b-i-l's set up, the leather work looks awesome!

I like the look of the fullsize, magwell cut 1911 grips.

Dale,

I get positive comments every time anyone sees the grips that you made for my Gold Cup and 1911 knife. You have skills man.

Best wishes,

Thank you all,for the kind comments! I was very suprised at how nice the grain looked with the walnut!

Eagle stroker,if I had a set of grips to get my pattern from I probably could,but sadly I lost my S&W's during my divorce about 12 years ago
