they look pretty good to me Mike.
Thanks, Bruce. It’s just vinyl tube from a Roundup spray jug. Lol
I wish someone knew the process that Tom Jensen used for the original handles.
Given the era in which these were made they were probably bakelite plastic. I looked into making these last year and found some pearl "esk" plastic rid that I thought might make good handle material...I think I found it on Etsy , didn't buy any though.
The only info I’ve ever found is that he made the handles using “boiler paste”, which I assume was some kind of refractory material.
