Soon I hope to get it. I apologize for the bad photos. What do you think, what kind of wood on the handle?

It "also" appears to be shop-supplied rosewood, considering the graininess of it. Ebony is usually smoother. Good luck with it, regardless.
Best, Capt. Chris

Very Nice
I haven't seen one before with a compass. I have quite a few myself of both the big and little.

Question regarding the small Gambler domed butt cap.

For those of you that have brass or nickel silver ones, do you find it makes the knife too heavy at that end?

I've seen duralumin butt caps as well and was wondering about how the different weights affect the balance on such a small knife.

Thanks.
