I am going to get a custom 112 in a week or two and I wanted to get some opinions and see if you guys have walnut or ironwood from the custom shop. My knife buying may be put on hold for a little while and I wanted to get a nice 112 before that happens. I want nickel silver bolsters, upgraded steel and some nice darker wood, so it looks like I have two choices from the custom shop. The difference in price is pretty sizable, but for a custom, I'm not taking it into consideration. I would just like the nicer of the two. I have a 55 that I think is walnut and appears to be untreated. I doubt that's the way it would come from the custom shop but I really have no idea. I've never seen an ironwood handle so I really don't know about that one. I've looked up ironwood and it seems like it has more of a swirl grain instead of a straight grain like oak. Don't know if that's true or not so I'm hoping this is something you guys can help me with. While I'm asking, I'm curious about the lil' jack from SK, since that's along the lines of what I'm looking for. I'd appreciate your thoughts guys....
