The grip is made of a solid plastic. It is easy to hold and comfortable to use.

The handle is made of hard plastic It is very comfortable to hold and conforms with your hand and fits with 3 fingers on top and one finger on the other side of grip.

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

Hey sorry for the late reply. It's a half serrated stainless steel blade. Handle is high quality material. Not sure bout the handle but it has done weight to it. Hope that helps answer your question

They are made of bakelite - a lightweight thermosetting phenolic resin (plastic)Bakelite is non-conductive and heat resistant. In the old days, telephones, radios and such where made out of it. Hard to break and very damage resistant. I'm not sure how these handles "feel" however, I think they have some kind of texturing, but I would doubt they felt much like wood.

The handle appears to be a hard wood. I LOVE this tool. It makes gardening a joy.

It's a die cast metal and plastic handle like handle.... but not cheap... Its very nice though. Doesn't look cheap at least mine doesn't. Very charp.. but its a metal plastic mixed.

The handle is made of a very hard, thick and substantial plastic substance. I am not concerned about it breaking. It's great and the gear mechanism makes easy to squeeze.

The handle is rubberized and offers great grip. Not sure if there is plastic under it though.

The handle isn't slippery. It's made out of metal & some sort of fiber. We really like it and don't have any problems with the grip. Hope this helps you!

It's an all metal handle. I don't know about abuse, mine was used to chip concrete off of mixers to work on them, after a month the gun is no longer useable.

The handles are made from a decent quality silicone. Provide excellent grip and do not get hot. It is riveted although it does not go all the way through to the inside.

The handle is sort of rubberized and I think the blade is just molded inside of it. Very sturdy, I have cut down trees with it.

The handle is hard plastic. But it is a very nice machete. Great for removing Barbarian heads upon the battlefield.

Grip is a hard textured plastic; it is slip resistant, but the possibility exists. The handle, however, is long enough that one can grab it below the bump, creating an improvised guard.

No clue. The handle is metal however. It looks good and feels good, but is crap. Used German razors just to make sure it is not the razors that are bad.

I gave it as a gift to my son in law, but he said the handle is graphite and the rings metal...he loves it!

The handle is hollow hard plastic, the blade is rubber. There's an integral spring tension clip screwed into the end of the handle for mounting on a rifle. It looks decent but it's not made for real training use.
