      I've thought about hand carving a custom knob out of something dark, like mahogany. Mahogany has such a beautiful grain and color. Looks good!

        its oak with mahogany stain. you can see the oak seeping through where i sanded a little hard but i like it that way haha. its got two coats of varnish ( too lazy to do anymore) so it wont give you splinters. even if you are reffering to it as a dildo haha

          Looks cool, reminds me of an older screwdriver handle, the way it tempers at the bottom.
          Nice work

                              either shorten it, or make it a hell of a lot longer, no room for middle ground here.
