My new handle

Post by nevrknow »

Thought I would show you guys my handle I made this weekend for my Moritaka AS 240 I got recently from Mark. It's birdseye maple with M3 ferrule and cap with Chechen spacers. Anyway, I like it. :)

Nice work! Does the M3 composite work like wood or other composites like micarta or g10?

It works just like wood. Including tear out on the other end when you drill a through hole from the wrong direction. Found that out the hard way. "whistling" :oops:

Thanks for the input. 1 of the first I made actually. Tired of it being an used draw queen so to speak. May go into the classifieds soon. Which means I will buy more from Mark and re-handle them also. Just a hobby for me.
