Pakkawood is a beautiful material of exceptional quality. Pakkawood is man-made and it is produced by using intense heat and pressure to fuse multiple layers of the finest foreign and domestic hardwood veneers. The final product is strong, durable and weather and moisture resistant. Dyes are vacuum-impregnated into the wood, ensuring a vibrant and consistent color throughout the piece. Resins used during the production of Pakkawood provide a built-in finish. Because various veneers are used for Pakkawood, no two Pakkawood scales are exactly alike. The grain pattern and color of a piece is not known until the wood shaping process is complete. Pakkawood looks and feels like wood, but it is virtually waterproof and will not warp.

I have to say that despite trepidations of ordering online, my transaction with Oso Grande was absolutely flawless. I emailed Oso Grande about a knife availability and promptly got a response within hours. I proceeded to call and place my order over the phone. A follow up "thank you" email and tracking email was sent to me straight away and the knife, a Spyderco Delica 4 Titanium/Damascus showed up perfectly. Overall, I would be happy to recommend and order from Oso Grande again.
