With this give me a lot more grip then the smooth surface I have now?

Would the design go longways on the grip?

Thanks

Maybe he can scrimshaw some checkering for you.

I had thought about scrimshawing my ivory grips, but went with a medallion instead. I'm familiar with scrimshaw having lived in an old whaling community all my life (Moby Dick's New Bedford). The question I have is, if it's a daily carry gun, won't the ink have a tendancy to wear away? I've seen older scrimshaw that has eroded from heavy use.
