Aging elk stag grips

[John Barleycorn, SASS #76982]

So I found a pair of elk grips (thanks Will Burn Powder) and they were a white/gray. I wanted an aged look like the Grashorn set I got from Cpl Henry. 
After some research, and following Sack Peterson’s website advice. I got some tan Fiebings leather die and mixed just a little with some isopropyl alcohol and applied one coat with a cotton ball. Then buffed with a clean cloth. I think they came out pretty good.

I'd say they came out very well. "Fine Job"

Now those are purdy. I love stag grips and really prefer the darker aged ones, similar to ones John Wayne's carried. Very nicely done!

Long ago I knew a person that made grips and he used Iodine to age them. V.D.

Looks great .

Last time I did that years ago .

I just dropped them in a coffee cup of hot tee with the tee bag still in the cup .

Let them set for a couple days and they come out looking about the same way .

I wish I still had that set of grips and the single action army they was attached too .

Sack’s site said don’t immerse elk grips.
