Impala Black Jigged Bufallo handle...what say you?

[AVigil]

I am working on a fighter and have been tossing around ideas for handle material.

I have no experience with the Impala Black Jigged Bufallo handle material and was wondering how is the durability and ease working?



Any tips and methods of attachment is appreciated

Picture is too small... can't see anything in it but black.

I recently used this handle material on a camp sword I made. It was easy to work and I like how it turned out. I attached it using 1/8 inch brass pins and epoxy, sanded it to shape after the epoxy cured, and polished on a buffer after that. Only caution I would make is use fresh abrasives so it does not get too hot.
