I gotta say,
@MrHoss, that handle looks outstanding.
I have to send out a million "thank you's" to
@zavod44 for his amazing craftsmanship and attention to detail with the wood handles.
The mahogany wood belonged to my Great Uncle. He died in 1974. My folks had a bunch of it in their possession.
I grabbed some of it last year, and decided to send some to Brian. He accepted my handle request without hesitation.
With some patience on both ends, the handles finally arrived ….
Unfinished handles ….. Then some Danish oil applied …. They currently have 2 coats of spar varnish on them with maybe 2 more coats to finish ..
