Did you score a GB2? Want to use amboyna instead of blackwood?

Nope still waiting on the GB2. Maybe the amboyna with a blackwood bolster. That's some pretty wood.

We can do that. Check yours out when it arrives and shoot me an email with the final decision.

Steve, here is the Mach 1 finished with your scales you did recently. The hardware is polished up, heat treated the clip, bead blasted and reground the blade profile.

Gorgeous blade Dopic!! The figure in that wood is outstanding!

Thanks Joe, really love the scales Steve did. Someone commented it went from tactical to glamorous.

Dopic, that is a beautiful sight!

Hope those who celebrate had a great Christmas holiday. The emails/pm's have stacked up a bit, I'll try to get caught up completely in the next couple days.


Spyderco Dice with black ctek, white g10 bolster, red pinstripe/liner:

Spyderco Air with black linen micarta:

 

[CapitalizedLiving]

I'm totally taking a group shot when that gets here. It can be hard to appreciate the differences in black micartas and G10 without seeing a good side-by-side.

A group picture of your black air collection would be great! The differences between black linen, paper, and g10 are subtle but definitely there.


ZT0450 with Westinghouse linen. The blade has been expertly reground by Josh of razor edge. I was literally afraid of the edge on this thing!

Wow! With your scales and Josh's regrind that's a heck of a knife. That Westinghouse really pops.

Thanks ALLHSS!
Happy new year to everyone! Starting it out right with my first delica scales. Textured gray/black g10 with blue liners. Perfectly match for the stock gray backspacer.

ZT0566 with desert ironwood burl, orange liners, and bronzed screws.

 

[Blaster-6]

This ZT566 above is mine- the custom scales are my Christmas gift to me! Steve was great to work with, quick to reply, had some great suggestions and offerings (some ideas I used some I didn't) to make the knife what I wanted. Really looking forward to getting it back in hand!
