Source for "textured" G-10?

[samwereb]

I've read of this in the trade magazines, but don't know where to get it. The plain G-10 I have used becomes to slippery when finished. Any sources out there?

Thanks!

Samwereb,
I don't have a source for "Textured G10" other than what Halpern Titanium has. The problem is that you have to use it at full thickness like on the BM knives. This is fine as long as you don't mind a totally flat handle. I prefer to use standard G10, sand, shape and profile it until your happy then give it a low pressure sandblast with COARSE abrasive! If you are not set up to do this I would be glad to blast what ever you have for shipping charges. It gives a good finished look that is grippy and reveals the weave patern. If you can use it in the flat shape, I could blast a whole sheet of it for you????
Never mind the guys in the other Topics busting each others BA!!S They are realy OK except for Mayo, Hassom and that Simonich guy!
