What is the handle made out of?

It made out of a soft wood with a plastic collar... i'm not too sure of the type of wood though...

Some sort of light, relatively soft wood. A couple of times through the dishwasher would absolutely destroy this knife. Care for it properly, and you'll be pretty happy with it.

It has a plastic cap above the handle and the handle itself is made of wood, a real light color wood like pine wood. Fills good in your hand. Light weight. Nice knife for the price. Made in Japan.

The handle is made out of wood, and the black thing is metal. The knife itself is very nice, but watch your fingers bro.

I purchased mine last spring and the handle was made of both metal and plastic. The piece you grip is plastic while the sides that go to the tool are metal. It also rotates easily around the tool which I thought would be a problem but it actually was really convenient I thought. I wouldn't hesitate to buy it again for the price, especially compared to name brand electric jackhammers. I've used it to rip up a basement floor, patio, and sidewalk. All with no issues. Sorry this is more info, I've just been really pleased with this tool.

The handle is extremely strong. It's nylon that's glass fiber reinforced. Great knife by Kershaw for EDC.

I don't know for sure what the bristles are made of--my guess would be plastic or nylon. The handle is a hollow metal tube. Many reviewers said it bent easily, but I think if used appropriately it is pretty sturdy. I can see how it would bend if you whacked something with it.

Just the scales of the handle are wood. They are very thin @.25CM over the metal construction.

It appears to be a high-grade aluminum -- except for the handle, which is plastic, and the feet, which are hard rubber. It's a great cane -- the more I use it the more I like it.

The handle is metal. The blade is hard plastic. I used it a few weeks ago for a 2 inch snow and it worked great. Was very pleased with it.

Its plastic. And very weak. The metal only goes into the plastic handle for about 1/2". Mine snapped in half, I just posted a couple of photos.

It is made from 1055 high carbon. The handle removes and is replaced easily.

I don't recall (I gave mine to my granddaughter) but I seem to recall the handle was all stainless steel. If so, you're good to go - in or out of the oven.

The handle is made of plastic and metal. The black parts are plastic, but it's really heavy duty material, better than what they make cars out of.

The handle is hollow. I believe it is aluminum coated in rubber. I am traveling now and the knife is at home so I can not verify it.

It has a metal (aluminum?) handle with a heavy rubberized/heat resistant covering.

Plastic, but its very durable. And does not get hot at the portion you hold it.. I have left my machine running for a few hours (several water changes) and the handle portion never got too hot to hold.

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

The handle is plastic. Don't know if it's ABS or not, but it seems very sturdy and adequate.
