Default That set of grips you will never let go of.

As a grip maker, I think all of the grips I make are great. I wouldn't be willing to sell them, if I wouldn't put them on my own pistol. Sometimes though, I make a set that I just can't bring myself to sell. Usually it is something that I know I can't replicate again and is exceedingly beautiful. Well, this one is staying on my Yost pistol forever. Mother nature had a good time with this tree!

Very nice. Looks like flames, or magma.

Thanks. This piece of wood is not one that has been used for grips much. It is Red Morrell, an Australian Eucalyptus tree. Very hard stuff and difficult to get.
