Re: Show your Mule
This is another Mule I finished on 22 August 2020 (an otherwise awful day, that's why I remember the date). This is PD1 with kirinite scales; red, white, and blue G-10 liners and pins. Went with the patriotic theme.

Re: Show your Mule
I've been away from this forum and others for far too long. Moved, 2020 happened, garage not set up to work on knives or anything else. I finished this one in RWL34 with urban camo KVH series Tac-Cam scales,probably three years ago.

Re: Re: Name a Spyderco knife you thought you would like but didn't once you owned it.
Not sure of the model number, but it was the Wayne Goddard folder with brown micarta scales. I liked almost everything about it except that it was an absolute pain to open. Lubed it, opened and closed it over and over again and it never got easier so I sold it.

Re: Show your Mule
First Mule I've done in a few years. We moved and it took way too long to get the garage set up so I could work. The Mule is M390, and this is the third try with this one. These scales are G11 Garolite and olive drab G10. The pins are white G10. I think the halos around the pins were the result of d...

Here's my Mule in CTS B75P. The scales are butterscotch paper micarta, yellow fiber liners, and micarta pins, held together with two-ton epoxy. http://i570.photobucket.com/albums/ss147/spook89_89/MovingDay052.jpg The micarta was a totally different color on the outside than on the inside once ground...

I like FRN as well, but handle material isn't my first concern when buying a knife. All my Spydercos have FRN except for my C10G Endura with foliage green G-10 scales and VG-10 blade. For handles, I'm a micarta fan when I have a choice and it's on a blade I like. I have two ZDP Enduras and I like th...

Hey, the activity on this thread has slowed down a bit lately. What's everyone working on? http://i570.photobucket.com/albums/ss147/spook89_89/M390Muleresize-1.jpg I took the black and gray G-10 scales off since the left and right sides didn't line up (the black and red sections were off). I used b...

Trying again... Here's my Cruwear Mule, wearing scales of barbwire micarta and micarta tubes. I started the shaping with 60 grit sanding drums and sandpaper and progressed to 2000 grit, them buffing wheels going from black, brown, red, and white compounds. This barbwire micarta is great stuff. I lik...

TedP, Very nice! I wanted to use brown micarta for my Cruwear Mule but the shape of the handle wouldn't allow me to use the piece that I have. Instead, I'm using barbwire micarta from Texas Knifemakers Supply. The fabric base is burlap and makes some nice patterns. It shines up nicely, too. It's 1/2...

Hey Nozh, welcome to the West. Did Soviet producers ever make faulty products? (I know the answer; I've seen MiGs up close.) Were Soviet company presidents ever held accountable for the crap they made? As another member said, the founder of the company owned up and apologized. Either grow up and acc...

The first Spyderco I got was a fully serrated Endura I bought at the Griffiss AFB BX in '92 or '93. As I was removing it from the package, the plastic clip broke off. So, it was compromised before it got out of the wrapping! I ground the remains of the clip off but I was never a fan of fully serrate...
