That Marblewood is NICE!
Great works on here, thanks for showing us your addiction / hobby.
Have you tried Brazilian Walnut (IPE)?
I have a bunch of it around, and have been toying with the notion of doing the kimber's grips.
How well do the ironwoods / extremely hard woods hold up to checking (for grip)?
I have heard mixed things, most significantly: the wood is so hard that small portions of checking will occasionally chip off.
Ever experienced that problem?
