Hey guys, I just got in some awesome Antique, made in USA Micarta. Manufactured by Taylor Fibre Co. It is around 50+ years old. This is 1" thick black canvas Micarta. It has a very cool/unique edge grain compared to modern Micarta. It has alternating straight and wavy lines. It would be cool sliced on the edge for slip joints and folders as well. I am going to be cutting this up into 2" x 5" blocks and selling some of it. When it's gone, it's gone.

Specs

2" x 5" x 1" thick
price - $40 a block
Shipping - flat rate shipping is $7 for up to 8 blocks
Paypal preferred

If any one needs larger or smaller pcs just let me know. I have some wider for bigger handles, and also some 1" for turning or wa style handles.
 
The last picture is the sanded edge grain. I haven't had a chance to use any of this, so if someone uses it and wants to put pics hat would be great.
I'll try and sand a contour on some and post up pics as well.
 
Here's a look at it contoured. It feels a lot more dense than modern Micarta and it has a really cool look.

 
Hey Ben:

I'll take a block if you still have some available......thanks !
