Hey All,
I think every Busse I've every owned, I've gone with black micarta.

Was thinking of changing it up with a G10 Black for this new Battle Mistress in .210.

Do you all have a preferred handle color/material you keep everything, or any what is your favorite handle color and material.

Thanks for the conversation. :)

Micarta for me too, especially on a chopper. I don’t really have a favorite color. I’ve seen so many different shades of the canvas colors and like them all.
 
Great info, thanks guys.

Micarta seems to have a grippy quality when hands are wet or bloody.

Those that have used g10 on a Busse when wet or bloody are these noticeable slicker?
 
Micarta over g10 all day every day. It's grippy when wet, absorbs shock better, is lighter, and has a more of a warm feel in hand. It is also more comfortable for long use than g10.
 
Okay thanks guys.

Question on finish. I've only had coated and satins.

Do you have any good photos of stone washed?

Do you like stonewashed for a user or coated for a user?
 
Stonewashed is relatively new for Infi and SR101. Maybe we can get some pics from members here. I’m am interested in these as well.
 
I preferred G10 for appearance and won't absorb blood. Handle shapes do a good job of retention.
