Anyone have an EMF great western w/ ivory grips ?

I have an urge to get a .357 single action in stainless or nickel with simulated ivory grips. I suspect it is mainly because it reminds me of the Mattel pistols I had as a kid. They are classic looking regardless. Uberti only makes theirs in .45 LC. Found a couple of EMF Great Westerns that I could get.

Does anyone have one of these EMF revolvers, blued or silver finish? If so, how do their ivory grips look and feel?

Here's a video review of one. Duelist1954 states at ~3:18 into the video that he changed the grips to elk because he wasn't crazy about their original wood or poly-ivory grips.
