Grip question

[dgroff]

Can anyone tell me if these are Cocobola wood grips? I bought them a while ago and now I'm thinking about selling them, but I want to make sure my description is accurate. They're 1990 K-Frame, but that's all I know. I was offered $60 for them, but that seems kind of low for a really nice set.

If you paid $20 for them, and are offered $60 take it. (that is if you don't have a use for them) I would not worry about what kind of wood it is in your description. Pics work. I know grip types but not grip composition. I have never had to pay $60 for nice grips. Good luck! Bob

Grips are stamped 1997 on back

they are not cocobolo, if I had to guess, I would say they are slab sawn Goncalo Alves.

I'm seeing the same 1990 as the poster mentioned.
60 bucks was a fair enough offer.

Okay, works for me.
