That is completely outstanding! What are the dimensions now? Brilliant job! Thanks a lot, I have some other good projects in the works but my time has been really limited due to work and such. The blade is about 2.75 inches from tip to handle, cutting edge is roughly 2.25, handle about 3.75 and OAL...

Done by me, a little more custom work in the fact that everything was modified.

I would have to agree, if those are the prices to come then I guess I will finally have to seek professional help for my addiction because I will never be able to feed it at those prices and withdrawals will kill a man.

I've drilled and also milled liners before without any issues. If you have a drillpress you could always get an end mill bit along with a cross slide vise for a poor mans mill solution. Most of the vises will have a 4in X and Y axis to get a fair amount of movement. But I would not hesitate drilling...

I really like that. What's the actual weight differential after the mod? Well according to the catalog the original weighs 147g or 5.2oz. and my modded one came in at 114g or 4.032oz. I also weighed my orange S30V sprint with FFG blade and that was 118g or 4.16oz. So there are some pretty good weig...

Great little (little???) change. :) I love it. Thanks for the pictures holding it. Placing one knife beside another that everyone knows the size of is nice but "in hand" is a far better way to show how the knife fits in a hand. I notices you left the jimping on the bottom of the handle. D...

You can buy it like this. Yes Dodge is right Minibear, I bought the handles with that texture but I milled them down to make them slimmer. I have an older shorter non hourglass spyderco clip that I am pondering but as many have stated I would kind of like a deep ride wire clip. I would just have to...

Manix 2 Mod - Mini Manix

Here are some pictures of my modified Manix 2. I changed the blade shape a bit to make it smaller and also shortened up the handles. Also I made some new Blue/Black G-10 handles. To lighten it up some more too, I skeletonized the liners. I still have a few more plans for it to include stone washing ...

Just curious what the sixth knife from the left, bottom shelf is? Looks like a shorter Manix 2. You are correct, it is a Manix 2 it's getting close to being finished but I still have a few things left to do before I posted it. Or I guess I could take a pick of the work in progress but I really want...

Here is the stand I made awhile back, however it is too small and I have many more Spydercos a long with a few other makes that don't fit. http://i1088.photobucket.com/albums/i337/Stugots-II/982548D7-589A-4355-B38A-A93920CF94B2-976-000000AFFC0C82B4.jpg http://i1088.photobucket.com/albums/i337/Stugot...

First Slipit

So I ended up getting a Pingo for my first slipit and let me tell you I love it for my first. Sure it's not a one handed opener but the ergos are great and the blade and steel are a great choice. Being new to slipits though I only have one question, do they usually have side to side blade play? I tr...
