Question about the Louisville Slugger Natural Wood Baseball Bat: I received the bat but is it normal that the barrel has a clear finish but the handle has none?

Yes! The bat handle is unfinished intentionally. This way it is easier to tape it or pine tar the handle and it doesn't slip as easily in bare hands.

There is a bat symbol however, it is difficult to see because it is black. It is still an excellent piece!

The handle is made of leather, not wood. Most full size and military KaBArs have the leather wrapped grip/handle.

Yes, it is normal do not worry about that, seems the handle is made of aluminium, then can save weight, it works really good when you want to cut down a tree around 4 or 5 inch diameter when you a in the wood, it is faster than a saw : ), I have take it to wood many times, most time use it as ax, sometime use it to dig a hole, and bury some deer cane. Best

Only the "spoon" portion is polished, the handle is not, theres a very distinct line maybe 1/8" up the handle. I would compare this to a normal piece of flatware, I don't notice any sort of taste etc. It also cleans fairly easily.

The one I ordered had a wood handle pictured and that's what I received. I think you'd be happy with any of the Mora knives. This is my first one, but at these prices, it won't be my last!

Yep, the handle is bare wood that is incredibly hard & wonderfully smooth. A beautiful axe!

The handle is painted wood. And although I've occasionally dropped my canes (I own four), the paint hasn't chipped.

It is a little rough because the bowl does not have any finish on it. It had been sanded smooth but needs to be oiled after cleaning each time inside & out. It is raw wood. I love it by the way. It is exactly what I wanted.

It has a very smooth finish. The one I ordered has no burrs on it at all and works like a champ.

Mine was new. Plastic wrapped, double boxed. One to hold the bat and that box was inside another box used for shipping. It's on sale because it's a 2014 model and the 2015 model is out already.

The woodgrain handle is a beautiful brownish color. It really is very nice looking.

I just wiped my gun down. My stock is synthetic, so I didn't have to work with the wood. It's pretty straight forward, take your time and it looks great

I believe the handle is wood. Smooth black surface is a little hard to hold onto--I was just thinking something textured would be better. I like the cane!

mine was used from a different company, painted black. after oiling, the paint started to run, so i wd40'd the whole thing to remove excess paint. mine is an Ames 1974 model US. And yes, paint is missing where the back of handle meets spade, but also in other areas. my handle is high grade aluminum, so it's of no concern. The Steel spade i keep clean and oil the bare metal. i am really happy with this E tool.
