What wood in 110, 112 handles?

[lambertiana]

What wood is currently being used for the handles of 110 and 112 models. I remember they used to be macassar ebony, but I'm under the impression that has changed. What year was the change made?

It was, I believe, 1992 that Buck changed from Macassar Ebony to the Obeechee (sp?) wood laminate.
Hope this helps,
