Something like this: Karl Nill GmbH

I'm trying to understand why their products are so extraordinarily expensive. Those grips cost almost twice as much as any of the other wood grips I've seen.
They're most likely NC machined and the resulting fit is VERY tight. Their woods usually have a lot of color and some grain. I believe their checkering is done by hand AND you're dealing with the Euro which kicks the price up by about 35% over the dollar. I have six sets on S&W's and Rugers.
