We’re proud to offer Osage Orange handles in mixed grade. While we do not specify #1 or #2 grade, Osage Orange is a strong material excellent for a user or wall hanger.
These handles are elegantly and ergonomically sculpted, ending in a generous palm swell. The handle comes with a “cone-end” below the palm swell. This feature presents multiple benefits to the handle, such as protection against damage to the palm swell when fitting. Once fitted you have the option of leaving it as-is, cutting it off to the curvature of the swell or rounding it over to add a classy, vintage style bulb end. Your handle will come with 1 walnut wedge and a coat of boiled linseed oil for preservation.

Osage Orange is one of the best handle materials available. It actually has a higher Janka hardness rating, and higher flexibility rating than hickory making it an excellent choice for both a user or a wall hanger!
