Cherry, I think:confused: This wood came in a pack of hard wood that I picked up at a craft store. I could identify all the rest of the wood they had listed, so I figured these were the cherry

Thank you all for the kind comments! But if it weren't for joining the 1911 forum, and then this cotep forum. And meeting all the fine people here, I probably would never have tried to make grips! So I owe you all a big thank you. So......THANK YOU :toast::chopper:
