I make a few knives as a hobby. I am working up a scaled tang
drop point hunter.
I am using maroon macarta for the handle. What color spacer would look good with that material?
Thank You in advance.

Harvey King did my two Stag handled knives with red liners. Red would not have of been my pick of liner colors, but they are outstanding.

My Jason Winston #32 in black scales has red liners also. Good luck.

Spacer/liner?

I would be afraid that black would blend too much with the maroon. I would go with white, or white then black (next to the tang).

Is it maroon linen or maroon canvas micarta? Either way, brass spacers would look good too, if you used brass pins.
