Since Spegel's are pretty much unubtanium, any good alternatives for some nice wood J and K Frame grips?

For wood? Altamont, Hogue, Eagle for mass produced solutions. Keith Brown, Herrett's, NILL for custom solutions.
If you want a good Spegel alternative that can be non-wood VZs are very similar, a tad slimmer in the cross section, to Spegel's boot grips and are basically my go-to.
Spegel’s are my favorites by a long shot. And yes, I once bought a 442 I didn’t need just because I wanted the Spegel grips on it. But I also love Herrett’s designs. If the iPad was less wonky about letting me select pics I’ve already uploaded I’d post both here now.
Anyway.... here’s a pic of Herrett’s I frame grips on a J frame and Spegel’s on a K frame.
Had to upload the pic again to do this.
@blues has some great looking Hogue G10’s on a j frame here recently too.

Not nearly as pretty, but the G-10 Bantams (Piranha) are same size replacements as the OEM rubber boot grips that come on the current 642's and similar models. The G-10 has a nice texture without being overly aggressive.

There's nothing civil about this war.
You might call to get on the list (he quoted me about 3 years... a year and a half ago). In the meantime, get something else to hold you over.
I really like my Hogue Bantam Grips. I have 3 sets in Cocobolo.
