Cocobolo Knife Blanks / Knife Scales – 5" x 1-1/2" x 1" – Premium Exotic Wood Handle Material
Craft stunning and durable custom handles with these Cocobolo Knife Blanks / Knife Scales, sized 5" x 1-1/2" x 1", perfect for knife making, tool handles, and specialty woodworking projects. Cocobolo, scientifically known as Dalbergia retusa, is one of the most sought-after exotic hardwoods, prized for its rich reddish-orange to deep brown tones with dramatic dark streaks and striking grain patterns.
Cocobolo is highly valued by knife makers and woodworkers for its exceptional density, natural oils, and outstanding durability. The wood machines well and polishes to a smooth, glossy finish, often requiring minimal finishing due to its natural luster.
Each blank showcases unique color variation and bold grain, making every knife handle or tool grip one-of-a-kind. Because of its strength and stability, Cocobolo is widely used in high-end knife handles, fine woodworking projects, musical instruments, and decorative crafts.
These blanks are ideal for custom knives, hunting knives, chef knives, bushcraft knives, pocket knives, tool handles, and other specialty grip projects where both beauty and long-lasting performance are essential.
