Don't know how I missed this thread the first couple of years it was up... too bad Phatso-bludgeon saw fit to block so many of the earlier images. 
Anyway, my "little guns" tend to be older (read "I-frames" and a single Baby Chief) but there was one J-Frame I actually felt like I had to have, this Model 60-4. The display is my version of one in the NRA National Firearms Museum - not quite as elaborate as theirs, but I like it anyway! In line with the thread topic, the grips are from Thailand, via flea-Bay. They are a very dark brownish-blackish wood that at least resembles ebony, which provides a nice contrast to the stainless M-60.

RubEric,
Is that a 60-10 with the cokes? That revolver is just stellar!

My 442 with elk grips and a Tyler T. If my S&W’s don’t have magnas and a Tyler T, they have Herrett Jordan Troopers. I reserve that grip style for my N Frames, and M69.

Some smooth carry grips for the J-Frame
Here are two smooth grips that I use with grip adapters.
They work well for pocket carry.

Thanks, Phil. They were made by Grashorn Gunworks a few years ago.

I bought some J frame grips at a gun show for my son's 36 (RB). Said he did not want them. For some reason thought these were popular. I don't own any J's. Bob

This is my 36 with Sambar Stags. Saw it in the LGS and figured they were plastic. Made a deal for the 36 for $300. Got it home and realized they were Sambar. Looked up the grips on line and found that they are worth almost what I paid for the whole thing.

My 640 with Altamonts. I tried a lot of grips before I found these to work for me. They’re actually more comfortable when shooting magnum loads than Goodyear’s.

Altamonts. Might get a set of their round to square grips also. Make it look like a baby L frame. 😊

I have a 637-2 2" which has factory S&W branded Crimson Trace grips. They work well, even taming the occasional +P's. Bought a 60-15 .357 3" with the sharp factory wood grips. Put a set of regular Crimson Trace on it, found +P's are ok, and .357 still is a bit too much, but it is a "light" gun.
Double-action on both is so smooth. The 60-15 is my "bedroom" gun, just waiting, forever, I hope. The 637-2 is my "if I need to carry" piece, easy to holster or pocket, depending on the situation, even with the exposed hammer.

These G Mascus grips are by Hogue, made with G10 Blue Lava.
I always liked the Spegel designed boots by Uncle Mike that came
on the 642-1, but they were just a wee bit "clingy". These are not.
BTW the knife is by Piranha and the holster by Chic Gaylord.
