Hey!
Wanted to drop ya a line and say I am so impressed with your customer service! The case arrived literally 3 days after I placed my order, that's incredible! It's awesome as well, I sent it as a birthday present to my ex wife, and she just recieved it today and is in love! Thanks!
I'll be keeping an eye on your site, I have a Beretta 92FS and while I'm a low-key, non flashy kind of guy, a custom set of grips for it would kind of be cool. I have no idea what design, so I'm looking through your site and other places for ideas. If I come across something unique that screams "ME!" I'll let ya know!

Greetings Ed:
Your grips arrived in the mail today and I wanted to let you know how pleased I am not only with the figure of the wood but your craftsmanship as well. Awesome! I can't wait to show them to Marianne Carniak. Thanks again for creating these beautiful 1911 grips for me.
Incidentally, any progress with the customized "Delta" medallions you mentioned in a previous email?
My hand in yours,
Alex

Dude… you absolutely rock! These things are fantastic. I couldn’t be happier. Ed, it was a pleasure doing business with you. Please tell your guys in the shop that I appreciate their workmanship on these awesome grips!
Its funny how little things like this make a grown man smile…….You made my day man.
Take care

Hello Ed,
Just wanted to drop you a line and say thanks for the grips, I am very
impressed with the workmanship and quality of material, It was definitely
worth the wait.
Thanks Again,

Ed,
Got the grips today (Monday) and all I can say is that the pictures did not
do them justice. Fantastic job. Thank you very much. Your customer care
is top notch. Good idea on sending the business card too. Already had
several other deputies checking out your site after they saw the finished
project. Don't be surprised if you get an order or two from this area.
Well, I should say an order or two more, because when I'm ready to get new
grips for my Kimber, I already knew who to call.
Thanks very much again. And let your staff know how pleased we are with the
work all of you did.
Until my next order,
Shane
hi ed, i would like to take this time to thank you for the grips. they are beautiful. i knew they would be. you are truly and artist and a master at your craft. have a happy and healthy holiday, sincerely omar g.
Hi Ed,
The Gunslinger Grips arrived today, and sweet Jesus! Definitely worth the wait. What can I say, this year christmas truly came early to Tampere, heh-heh. I took some photos for you with the grips on the Springfield. I only had the camera from my cell phone available so I'm sorry if the pic quality is low. Now I just need to find me some better screws for attaching these babies, because the old ones from the prior grips had really poor quality.
You can absolutely use me as a reference on your testimonials section. You managed to have the time to answer my questions all the time and I just can't stop looking at these grips, man! I just cant buy another 1911 anymore without Wicked Grips.
P.S. I already started "something big" here in Finland by posting couple of pics to some shooting forum. I just checked some comments and it seems you might get some new orders from Finland soon =)
Million thanks Ed, these grips were worth every penny and they truly made my Springfield MY Springfield.
Best Always,
Jani Ojala, Tampere, Finland
The grips arrived and they are awesome. I took them over and gave them to Don. He was very impressed with the work and they fit the gun like a glove. I appreciate all the work that you put into making them. I have not seen a better looking set of grips and to be able to personalize them is even better. The only problem with them is I want a pair for myself! I will contact you after the holidays about ordering some for myself. I am presently thinking of some ideas for design. Talk to you soon.

Ed,
I have to say the grips are better in person then picture. I got home from the range with my new springfield 1911A1 the post lady just drop them off. I was very happy with design and work.

I was and am extremely excited by the grips you formed for my Kimber 45 ACP CCW gun. It was a gift from a close personal friend Dr, Steve Lawson who ordered these grips to honor my almost 40 years of Federal service(22 years with the U.S. Army and the rest supporting the troops on the civilian side. I've looked at a lot of custom grips but have never seen anything as beautiful as the 444 grips. Steve tells me it's all in my head but it even shoots better and feels better in my hand. I carry this gun daily and I thank Steve for the honor of these grips and I thank you for your artistic craftsmanship. Donald R. Hohman CWO(Ret) former Iranian POW November 4, 1979-January 20 1981.
Ed,
I am beyond happy with these new grips! They look incredible on my Kimber .45. I have enclosed some pictures, I'm not much of a photographer but if you want to post a pic or two on your website I would be honored. Once again thank you, and be sure that your grips will be on all my future guns!

Ed,
I love the grips, they are perfect and better than I could have imagined. I will be contacting you shorty for our next project which will be for my other unfired Colt series 70 Government model. I am thinking of another setup and will email you shortly with the details. Thanks

Hi Ed,
Two sets of your grips, 485 and 476, were received this past Saturday. I just wanted to thank you and say that I am more than delighted. Both look even better than in the photos, the workmanship is outstanding, fit was perfect too. Now I know that I must acquire some more of your work, so I will be checking your “for sale” category very often, particularly for more ironwood like set 489, the next pair in a full size with ambi maybe a bobtail or magwell base this time. Thanks again,
Rudy
Ed,
Thank you for the awesome grips. They are the best part on my beloved LW Commander........... eyecatching for certain and they are perfectly fitted.
This is my daily carry pistol and she now looks deadly and beautiful.
Many, many thanks. The grips are beyond what I expected.
I have other 1911s that need an upgrade. Expect another order from me soon.
Best regards,
Andrew Garrett
Ed:
I just received my new grips and they are absolutely awesome! The fit and finish is perfect and your customer service is second to none! I had intended to install these grips on a gun that doesn't see too much action, but quickly decided they are too nice to keep hidden away in storage. I look forward to doing business with you again! Wicked Grips Rocks!!!

Gentlemen,
I received the grips today. I hope you took pictures for your website,
these are awesome!!!
I expected excellence, but you have exceeded even my high expectations.
I have not seen anything like this anywhere, ever. I think I will cry.
Sincerely,
Tom F.
Ed,
You sir, are a GOD... thease are no shit! the best thing to hit 1911's since holsters!
I can't thank you enough!
Thanks again Chuck.
(note... Chuck is a soldier currently serving in Iraq... his comments upon seeing pics of the grips he ordered...)
Hello Ed.
I just received my blue "Tlaloc grips" yesterday.
What could I say?
WAOW!!! Great job!
That's a very good work!
Better than all I had hope!
THANK YOU (and your team).
More words soon, with some pictures of my old 1911 when it will be ready.
(An I will order you another custom grips next, for sure).

Hey man! I finally got my grips on the handgun and I LOVE THEM!
Thanks! You guys do a great freaking job!

I just open my mail box and to my suprise I saw that my grips have arrived and what a set they are. The photos do not do it justice. I cannot wait to order the set with the Dragon insert, I am sure they will look just a beautiful as the set I have now. Thank you for the quick shippment.
Your's truly

Ed, on reading thru all the comments, I was very impressed with what everyone said about you, and your company. Bottom Line--it's all true, the Outlaw grips are stunning, and truley a work of art. I tried for an hour, with a dig. camera, and computer--to get the pictures to look as good as the actual grips--I can't. Here is the best I can do. Thank's for puttin' up with me changing my mind so many times, and then buying the already made grips. Beautiful. Vince A.
Ed,
My friend purchased a set of the Desert Ironwood grips for me as a Christmas gift. I have to say that they are even more impressive in person. I love 'em!! My only problem is that I don't want to put them on my S/S carry gun, just to get them beat up. I plan on engraving a blued Govt. model to use as a show piece and will be sure to put them on it. I'll send pics when I manage to get it done. Also, I would like to add your site to my links page if it's o.k. with you. Please let me know if there is anything I can do for you. Thank you for putting out such a great product.
Sincerely,
