The meteorite grips on Time Traveler represent an expansion of our knowledge and craft in the refinement and options in working with meteorite.  The initial inspiration for the Time Traveler grips was the Big Bang Pistol Set grips, which also display the exterior bark of meteorite, as well as the mirror-polished interior section of meteorite.  Journeys tend to deviate on unexpected paths, and this was the case for Time Traveler. Previous experience with meteorite had led to a thesis that, with some risk, we could draw out additional natural color elements of meteorite so we presented our client with an idea to take our craftsmanship a step further.  To be sure, it was a risk but when presented to the client for approval the response was a resounding, “Go for it! No risk, no reward!”  And so we forged ahead, and the result was beyond our imagination – and unlike anything that has been seen before.
