About Octagonal Wood Handle
Octagonal wa-handle blank in wenge and ebony
This listing is the Octagonal Wood Handle — “Handmade Octagonal Wenge Ebony Spliced Wood Knife Handle, Replacement Grip for Japanese Kitchen Chef Knives DIY Making.” It is a replacement wa-handle for a kitchen knife, spliced wenge and ebony as titled, not a finished Xinzuo chef’s knife and not a pair of bookmatched scales.
SKU KV-124. Finish: Wenge & ebony wood. Octagonal Japanese-style grip: you fit it to the hidden tang, epoxy, finish, and seal. This is a part. If the tang in your kitchen knife is the wrong size, this blank will not magically fit — measure before you order.
Wa-handles are for Japanese kitchen tangs, not for a full-tang EDC slab. Bookmatched scales (KV-120) are the full-tang language. This octagon is the kitchen-replacement language. Spliced wenge and ebony is the look: dark dense wood meeting open-pored wenge.
After install, treat it like any wooden kitchen handle: hand-wash the knife, dry the octagon, oil if the finish allows. Priced in CAD, knife-making shelf, adults 18+, The Knife Vault.
Wenge, ebony, and water
Ebony is dense and can split at pins if you force a rivet. Wenge is open-pored; it wants finish. A spliced octagon is two woods meeting; that seam is a glue line to inspect, not a defect to hide with oil alone. Hand-wash the finished knife; never the dishwasher.
- Form: octagonal wa-handle blank. Woods named: wenge and ebony, spliced.
- Job: replacement grip for Japanese kitchen chef knives as titled.
- SKU: KV-124. Not KV-120 (bookmatched scale pair), not KV-123 (rivets).
Fitting notes
Fit dry, then epoxy. Seal end grain. Pins only if the tang and wood allow; this title does not include brass rivets — buy KV-123 separately if you need fasteners. Priced in CAD, knife-making shelf, adults 18+.
