I was born and raised on wax for woodworking... using it on handles is just a natural. Boiling your handles in it is a real eye opener...

The question of which to use is aesthetic. CA is glossy, shiny and stays clean. Wax feels like the wood. It grips well, is still clean, but is flatter in appearance. For sales, I would use CA and go for glossy. For a work tool, wax is what I love. I have no good excuse for my preference. Bob CA leave a very tough finish. The question of which to use is aesthetic.
