I am in the process of putting my first handles ever on a blank.
By coincidence I came across some cool looking material which I would classify as swirly micarta. I like the swirls and the little spots of orange in the blue.

They don't specify what resin they used or how robust it is.
Could there be any issues with exposure to rain or daylight (UV)?
Are there any other things I should ask them before purchasing a sample?
Since I go full tang I assume that structural integrity of the handle is less important. Am I wrong?

Thank you!

Maybe I should reword it.
Is there anything important I should pay attention to when evaluating a micarta like material for a full tang knife?
Thanks again for your help.
:)
