My only mellon tester, and I think my first re-handle. Nice lil Kabar advertising knife, but had one shattered handle that let the moisture in and destroyed the paper ad underneath. I went with some oak I salvaged from a pair of drumsticks in my "destroyed" pile lol ! I must have stained them, cause I know those sticks were Japanese white oak. Turned out ok.
