Nice New Nelspot Wood Grips

TouchofGrey · 09-02-2006, 12:24 PM

Well I've been waiting five months and my friend Rich came through. Here are the photos.

Incidentally, if anyone wants Rich's email address to order grips then PM me and I'll provide it.

Wow! I love the woodgrain in those. That looks fantastic!

What kind of wood is that? I love the way he had the grain run like that.

Tis Zebra Wood. I'll bring the marker with me in November so you can see it.

Looks kind of....lumpy. Something about those grips looks different.

Before Rich started to work on the grips I had to hold a piece of clay in my hand in the same manner I would hold the Nelspot. So what you are seeing is the customization of the grips based on my personal grip. Not sure how he used the mold when he did the carving, but he did a great job.

Thats nice wood ToG, kinda like having your own personal "battle grips" but with a classier touch.

Thought it might have been something like that.
