 *NOTE: If you purchase 12"x12" Or 12"x24" Sheet there could be a lead time depending on In Stock Quantities.

We had this G10 custom made for us. This is a combination of Brown, Tan and Black.

The difference between Micarta and G10 is: Micarta is a high pressure laminate that (often) uses linen or canvas based fiber. G10 is an epoxy based high pressure laminate that used glass mat (think fiber glass) for the fiber base. G10 is tougher and more water resistant than Micarta.


Tip: This is glass based. Wear a respirator. Wear gloves when you are cutting it too. After cutting a bunch of it, I can feel several dozen little prickly glass threads in my hands.

Due to the layering process of the colors the top and bottom of the scale may be a different color. When gluing these to your tang be sure to glue the same sides in. If you do not your color layers will not look the same once you start shaping the handle material.
