Green, Black, Walnut & Red layers
We use a wide variety of handle materials. Our standard models use Dymondwood. Dymondwood is a phenolic resin, hardwood laminate that is highly water resistant,
and rock hard!
  We also use stabilized hardwood, and hardwood burls...
these have been treated with acrylic resin, for water resistance and durability. 
To adorn the natural beauty of the woods, various reconstituted gemstones are available...
you may see examples of these below, under the heading "Southwest Series".
 
As mentioned in the "How to Purchase" section, this is where you want to look,
to choose what color you want on your knife!

Southwest Series
"Southwest"  The word conjures up thoughts of turquoise, fool's gold, and pastel colors that remind us of the desert sunsets, and the Native Americans of the Southwestern United States.  Many of the materials we use, originated in native american jewelry, so we felt the name fitting!  Each knife is a one-of-a-kind; the number of possible beautiful combinations is limited only by our imaginations!  Ask us about available gemstones & pricing!
