They look awesome. I really like that you left some of the bark on them. I do like smooth sheephorn, but the bark gives it so much more color and texture....simply amazing and probably my favorite grip material. Well done sir.

Believe it or not, I have a Ruger .32 Mag with Sheephorn grips with some of the bark left on them. Regular gripframe not birdshead, so you can find it. I'm not derailing this thread with my grips, but can post on a new thread.

well it would depend on the final thickness and width once they were cut into blanks but i'd say there's probably 4 sets of single action grips in there, maybe more.

thanks!

I was really hoping that some of the bark would still be there in the finished grips and luckily it worked out that way, like stag or Elk antler I really think the bark gives them character.
