This fine, creamy white piece of hickory arrived today. Here is my review.
You can't expect to find a nicer handle available for commercial purchase. It is straight, slim, very nicely shaped, symmetrical, has a straight kerf etc etc. Everything that we complain about regarding the general state of handle quality is addressed in this product.
I support making your own for fun and experience, but the fun and experience are the goal. I can make a serviceable handle that would not embarrass me, but I am not capable of producing the equal of this one regardless of the amount of time that I invested.
If you need or want to purchase a handle for your next project and you want it to be worthy of your efforts, buy one of these.
