UNCOVERED! We have just one custom Wenge handle with your choice of base remaining from a custom run for long-time collaborator's Intelligentsia Coffee dating back several years. About the same size as our Signature handle, with a little more wood at the top to fill your palm. Very comfortable.
New old stock made entirely by Reg and only very limited quantities are available. Just pick your combo!
Notes:
This listing is for a handle only. Handles and bases must be specified individually to create your complete tamper. We'll assemble it for you before shipping.

Sustainability:
This wood species is not listed in the CITES Appendices, but is on the IUCN Red List. It is listed as endangered due to a population reduction of over 50% in the past three generations, caused by a decline in its natural range, and exploitation.
These wenge handles are new old stock, crafted by Reg in the 2000s or 2010s. Because of their vulnerable status, we will not be making any more wenge tampers until sustainable reforestation measures have ensured this beautiful species's chances for long-term survival. Once they're gone, they're gone.
