Custom Shop Handle ID Help

[saville01]

I am thinking of selling a few of my Custom Shop SFNO's and have forgotten the handle material can anyone help me.

The first looks like Black G10/Desert Ironwood and the second appears to be G10/Spalted Maple

*Edit: Both are beauties, no matter what

Second one is G10 & spalted maple for sure, I've got two.
Not sure what the wood is for the first though

Thank you

They are both the same~ gorgeous! If that's spalted maple it's the best I've ever seen. Normally it's lots of light and dark lines where this looks more burl-like than anything. Sure it's not maple burl?

This is more of a typical spalted look I would expect. This even shows some quilt patterns.

Here's some black ash burl too -

I think that Leonardo63 could be correct. Maple Burl makes more sense, not Spalted.

The more that I look at it, the more that it reminds me of a Bark River Gameskeeper that I had which was 1 of a 300 piece run for AG Russell with Maple Burl handle slabs
