Wood and micarta are more suitable for heavy workers. Wood will get my vote. I'm not a bone cover fan personally except to admire in others glamour pics. I'd love to see this done in African Blackwood or Walnut.

Just to throw this out there, it is ridiculously easy to satin any bolster with a piece of scotchbrite.Lots of people are asking for satin bolsters, but I prefer polished. Satin is too easy to scuff up, and there are always complaints of knives arriving scuffed already. Not to mention that a handful of members here end up polishing satin bolsters anyway. What am I missing here?
