Just go to the "big orange" building supply store and get a Nicholson (or other eqivalent brand) file that's the thickness of the groove (make sure the edge of the file is a cutting edge and is not smooth). Use the file as a knife on the lathe and you'll be able cut the grooves without a problem of tear-out.

My question is how does one go about grooving a grip like the comficient. I have a jig made that I can use to sand the thumb depression but when I tried to cut the grooves I got a lot of tear out (I used a very fine exacto saw).
