One of my Beeman Westley Richards Highest Possible came without grips. I have made many grips but this is the first time in Ebony. A wood shop near me had these scraps and they sure looked very black. Would be the perfect wood to duplicate the thicker grips like the early horn ones. Would love to checker them but not in my skill level. First need to duplicate a handle missing from my case, then on to the grips. Wish me luck!

That is just great wood for doing your grips, good luck with doing them.

Good luck with your project.
Ebony is a very hard wood and difficult to work using normal hand tools due to irregular grain structure encountered in some off-cuts but you may be lucky with the blank you have bought.
I wish you well.
