Just made a set of grips for my Sig P238
Vacuum Stabilized Birdseye Maple using Cactus Juice with some black dye added.
I think I might try making some blanks for knifes as well.
Just having some fun with the toys.
This pic is the Bug and The Thug

Nice work on the grips. Handles for the knives won't be any more difficult, I'd say. Keep up the good work!

Rgds,

Sweet! Those edges look good! I love that little glock 23...we carried the 22 (full size version of the 23) as our duty weapons up until about 2 years ago...that's when we went to the glock 21

I would love to have a Sig P938 but the G23 is a monster it just works.
Love it, snappy though... but a cool night stand gun. It stays haha
Love my thug and bug haha.....

Nice work! Did you stabilize the wood yourself?

If you get to the knife handles, please post them! Curious to see.

Yes I did them with "cactus juice" and black dye.
I have a large vacuum chamber I found on ebay years ago for mold making but
I never use it. It was to big and slow.
Seen a video on youtube for the cactus juice
for wood and tried it, very cool stuff.
the dye goes into the soft parts of the wood
and looks really neat.
Now I got to find some cool stock...

Here are some of mine:

FNP 45 Tactical
Glock 21SF

SOG Aegis
Kershaw Ken Onion Leek - Sandvik 14C28N stainless stee,Love this knife
Benchmade Griptildion - D2 steel

Cool Pic
I like the SOG Aegis because it sharpens up so easy.
Makes a great everyday work knife.
That FNP is nice

I like the Aegis but had to reprofile it from 18 to 22; the edge rolls much too easily for what I paid for it. But live and learn; the steel does matter. I just picked up the Griptillion and am curious to see how the D2 steel holds up.

Yeah I think I did my two in the pic at 20
The Mcusta chips at anything less.
I need to get some better steel
