I've been looking for a sturdy knob for quite some time. I'd say this one is an excellent piece of hard wood.
Holding this knob is just a pleasure. it has a lot of grip when I touch it it, thanks in no small part to it being covered it rubber.
when it came, I thought it looked rather short, that was a misconception. After measuring its length and diameter, I found out that is was quite average and a standard size...
black walnut also has quite the distinctive smell. Whenever I take it out of the bag to play, I'm greeting with the smell of black walnut
In conclusion, it's an sturdy little Harwood knob that I feel confident playing with
