Here's one to get the ball rolling.
This set combines two African hardwoods - Bubinga and Wenge. Bubinga ranges from rich browns to deep reds and can have very mild to wild veining running through it. A very solid wood, it's perfect for grip panels. Wenge is always dark, but depending on how you cut it can have very straight graining or wild "all over the place" graining. Both of these woods give you a range from which to choose how you want the grips to look. This pair is simply a Bubinga stripe through a field of Wenge with all of it set on a base of Maple. Kind of gives things a "framed" look on the pistol that is quite cool.
