They are stocks made in Taiwan - search eBay for "S&W grips K" and you'll find a dozen or more for sale, usually for $40 or so including shipping (which takes close to a month).

Interesting.
Are the stripes painted on them - or are they "scorched" with a torch?

I can't tell for sure painted most likely. But the quality seems outstanding for Taiwan made.

I believe they are from Thailand, not Taiwan.

Yes, could be - I get my Asian countries mixed up.

Their quality usually is pretty good. I've purchased two sets over the last year or two and both have fit well. The last set doesn't look quite as good in person as it did in its ad pictures as far as wood figure, however.
