	Micarta® is a material that is made from phenolic resigns, dyes, and a fill material like paper, linen, or canvas to create a very durable material that is very difficult to damage. If you choose to work with any of the Micarta® materials you should be ready to use some extra abrasives because one of this material's properties is wear resistance ... which you will figure out when you start to grind it. :~)



Paper Micarta®	Black paper Micarta® is great for a blasted finish for a very "grippy" handle in slick situations.	Handle sets (1 pair of 3/8" X 1 1/2" X 5") Price $4.50

	Ivory paper Micarta® when finished to a high polish looks a lot like real ivory without the cracking and expense of real ivory.	Handle sets (1 pair of 5/16" X 1 1/2" X 5") Price $8.75



Canvas Micarta® is even stronger than the paper Micarta® and has more pattern when shaped.	Natural color canvas Micarta® Light brown in color and shows a distinct layer pattern.	Handle sets (1 pair of 1/4" X 1 1/2" X 5") Price $6.25
