Mnandi Handle Inlays

What are all the different inlays that have been used on the Mnandi?
Am I the only one who wants bone?

Besides the endless variations of hardwood and mammoth ivory, I know for certain that www.knifeart.com has some exclusive giraffe bone Mnandi. I special ordered one in Cape Buffalo Horn.

That giraffe bone is sweet!

I hope there is still one left when I have the cash.

You're right that giraffe bone is sweet. You could probably order direct from CRK if you don't mind the wait. I just got a bark Mammoth ivory one from them that took 5 months to get. I'm hoping to get a giraffe bone large regular Sebenza if I can get Chris to agree to do it.

I have been thinking about getting a bone inlayed mnandi as well. How does it hold up?? Better or worse then the wood for everyday carry.

I imagine that it would hold up at least as well if not better than the wood inlay models.

is it possible for the inlays to shrink when they get wet?
