I know CF and Hawk used to... do they still make them... anyone else?

Kippax would definitely be one. GM perhaps?

Different question on GM handles. What shapes GM handles are? Oval? I bought noir last month and handle has best fit to my liking.

My Noir..

Think it's more square oval into round... it's not overtly really oval...

Good spot... I'm guessing wavex may have been created and pioneered in Canada but mass handle production in india.

Charlie French was making his own handles until recently, but he told me that importing cane was becoming very difficult so I believe he has now stopped.
