Ever seen an old black bowling ball? It was most likely Ebonite.

Is ebonite much better than terotuf? I don't have experience with either. I'm usually a micarta person for large knives and G10 or carbon fiber for folders.

Totally different. TT is warm and grippy. Ebonite is hard and slick.

Since we’re doing not political posts today, I thought this was a decent shirt:

I thought that ebonite had a rubbery grip.

I expected something like that. It was not. Chip’s bowling ball use mentioned above makes a lot of sense now.

Ebonite is the best ever

Imo

Ebonite > Terotuf

As

Wood > Antique micarta

They being the 4 best handle materials

That’s crazy talk! Lol. I would put TT or micarta ahead of Ebonite every day of the week.

That makes me wonder tho, what do you like about bowling ball handles? Maybe that’s my answer?

Ebonite is awesome.

Got it, relatively new to the BladeForums, so learning the ins and outs. I hope I can get lucky and catch one of the K20s on the secondary market!

P.S. I think what you’re doing at CPK is some amazing work, and hopefully there will be more releases like the K20 in the near future!

There will also be another run of K20’s in the future. Assuming the first run is a success. ()

Well… I have ecam. I don’t have ebonite. So….

I only have Westinghouse micarta on traditional knives from a few makers. So, I'm going with that. But I have to admit to a great curiosity about the ebonite. (Though I don't know that I'm another $125 curious enough for a second set.)
