Green Cheesewood Handle

Cheesewood (Alstonia congensis) is a tropical wood species native to Central and West Africa, valued for its fine grain and uniform structure. Naturally light in color, it is most often enhanced through coloring processes that bring out its full visual potential.

For this model, the Cheesewood has been tinted in a soft pistachio green shade, highlighting its smooth surface and natural elegance. This wood is particularly suited for knife handles due to its stability, lightness, and the excellent finish it allows.

Because it is a natural material, the appearance of each handle may vary slightly in color and pattern. The photos shown are non-contractual.
