For sale is a none drilled yellow micarta ferrule, the original rod is from a friend of mine, he builds custom knife, he got an entired rod many years ago and decided to drill it into ferrules for a quick sell
The ferrule is paper based yellow micarta, not something who sell on ebay, this is the old yellow micarta, really rare

the ferrule is like the old Southwest uesd, I will turns yellow as the time goes by, you can see some of the edge turns really yellow already, the stuff is freshly drilled, so it may take times to turn yellow

there is a thread on the subject of these ferrules either here or the main forum
the yellow has asbestos and these are not the same as used by south west even though both were made by westinghouse,it might turn yellow but i doubt it,since the pictures on the thread show both side by side

this is not to say these are worthless or cheap,they are just not the same
