Poly-brass handles.
You can see the gloss here pretty good. There's four undercoatings of sandable lacquer and no less than 10 layers of Poly on this thing. The finish was the killer because the wood is so grainy and uneven and full of natural imperfections.
I didn't want to fill the imperfections because it's what gives the zebrawood it's special look and feel and warmth.
That's why I also made the divider removable and non-adjustable, so that a person can appreciate the grain and look of the zebrawood.
It's totally awesome, but sheer hell to work with. Hard as nails, wrecks tools, and likes to explode.
