micarta or wood

[Rockywolf]

I have a few micarta handled knives, but tend to lean toward the wood ones for looks. Just a preference...

Wood no question. Until we have micarta with patterns on a cellular level wood will always be my first choice.

Micarta is made with natural materials that do have cells, and patterns of cells.

Still not as cool as wood. Unless they made micarta out of wood. But I guess Dymondwood is pretty much stabilized wood/micarta something or other.
