I was thinking about pieces of rubber from a horse stall mat to use on a skinner so it will be non slip and easy to get a grip on when wet. I have looked through those books that come out every year with pictures and descriptions of knives. I have also been to a gun and knife show, but they only sold cheap pakistani knives. The fanciest material I have ever used is supelia, which is an african mahogany with a thick, rich blood red color. Looks a bit like blood wood.
