Favorite style lock on MTB grips.

Wondering if anyone has a favorite MTB style lock on grip. I want to make myself some custom grips using tooled and possibly exotic leather. I have done leather work in the past and have lots of leather. What I need is the correct body that I can remove the existing grip from to replace with my design. Wondering if anyone has a favorite grip that is perhaps longer or different in some way that makes it superior for you. Probably won't do one with a huge palm rest but longer would be nice as I typically add a couple wraps of bar tape in front on mine.

Nothing special here, just foam grips over my Ritchey bars and my extensions.
