    Thanks brother , the ferrule is African Blackwood , nickel spacer and the handle material is budgeroo burl from the timber joint ( a.k.a my timber guy that lost his shed while ago )
    Budgeroo burl is a hardwood that polishes up very nice and doesn't have any voids even being a nice figured burl
