Handmade Micarta Ring - Burgundy Weave Home Made Micarta

Ditch those silly little silicone bands, and elevate your wedding work wear with some handmade micarta! Strong, durable, and stable, micarta is one of the most popular materials for knife handles, as it provides exceptional grip in all environments, a cool, unique look, and a soft feel. This particular micarta is custom made out of layered burgundy and burgundy/white fabric and epoxy resin, and is an excellent choice for everyday wear. It is waterproof, shock resistant, and chemically inert, so it will not react with your skin or common household cleaners and solvents.

The bare micarta will come quite light in color, and will darken and patina over time with wear, producing a nice contrast between the two fabrics. You can also hasten the process by rubbing a few drops of mineral oil into the ring and washing it back off with dish soap! If it ever starts looking dark or faded, a quick dish soap wash will bring it back to life.

The acrylic-finished rings will stay a darker color overall, with a nice, glossy shine. The acrylic finish will be susceptible to damage from strong solvents such as acetone, so avoid working with them while wearing, or go with a bare band!

While the plain micarta is plenty strong a durable, you can kick that up a notch with the addition of a ring core. The default option for cores will be a 6mm black ceramic band, but 8mm bands and other materials are also available in limited quantities, please reach out via message to discuss those options!
