I thought I would let you all know that I am now selling a new handle material, I am calling it Thunderstorm Kevlar.
It is an industrial made Kevlar composite, with brass fibers running through it.
The other cool aspect of this material is high heat resistance. It is rated up to 600 degress F, more than twice that of Canvas micarta.
Here are the prices, and shipping will be in a USPS med flat rate box at $13. I can fit quite a few sheets in one box.
1/8" 10x10" - $60 each
3/16" 10x10" - $72 each -
1/4" 10x10" - $96 each
3/8" 10x10" - $112 each
Please PM or email me to make a purchase. Paypal works best for me, but I accept postal money orders as well.
The material comes flat/smooth sanded(about 120grit finish), not glossy like Micarta comes. The nice thing about that, is that it is ready for glue up with little or no prep to the back.
I have included pics of the a finished knife I used it on, and also a pic of what the material will look like when you receive it.
Here it is when finished

If you have questions about finishing the material, just give me a shout!
I am willing to entertain trades as well.
