Woodriver Black & Gray 3D Micarta Quail Feather Knife Scale Material, 3/8" X 2" X 5", 2-Pieces

WoodRiver 3D Micarta is a hard, compact material that will not warp, expand or shrink with age or exposure to weather – a superior choice for knife handles. Similar in construction to G10, Micarta is made of thin layers of linen cloth that are soaked in phenolic resin, baked and pressed into huge sheets. It has no surface texture and is extremely smooth to the touch but when shaped exposes a pattern that resembles quail feathers. Micarta requires hand labor, use of files, rasps, and sandpaper. Once sanded to 600 grit, apply one to two coats of teak oil per the manufacturer’s directions to seal the open fibers. Scales measure 3/8" x 2" x 5". Note: Use of personal protection, such as respirators and safety glasses, is recommended while shaping, forming and sanding.
