Leopardwood is an exotic wood with dark reddish-brown color with strong broad rays. This material is straight-grained with a medium texture. It has very conspicuous flecking that gives this wood its namesake. The wood itself is a medium to dark reddish-brown with grey or light brown rays, which resemble a leopard’s spots. This highly flecked decorative surface makes this wood ideal for scales. The color you see is actually the wood, Whiteknuckler doesn’t tint it in any way, preferring the tried and true properties of pure Tung Oil. We like to use traditional methods and Tung Oil is about as traditional as it gets when it comes to coating woods, it improves and brightens the color of most wood and provides water resistance. It won’t chip, crack or fade as many of the polymer-based coatings can. Another big benefit is that the oil can be touched up and reapplied throughout the life of the handles.
All woods are stabilized and cured with proprietary processes in-house and hand-finished by Whiteknuckler’s skilled team. Should you experience a fracture (that can happen with natural materials) Whiteknuckler will repair or replace the scales without question.
The beautiful premium rich American leather is complemented by the natural Leopard Wood handle. Designed for both function and style, it makes a great everyday piece. Put a classic on your hip or that of someone you love today.
