Round Micarta

Being new at this game I have a question. I got the chance to buy most of an old kinfemaker shop and some of the items I don't know what a knifemaker would use. There are several round micarta material some about 1 1/2 inch some 1 3/4 inch one is about 1 1/4 inch. I know that micarta is used for handles. but round?

Thanks

Ernie

I'm guessing you could split it and grind to shape for full tang scales, or drill it for sub (hidden)tang and grind to shape, make spacers with it, all kinds of stuff. Your imagination is the only limit.
