Please post your modded/reshaped Mule handles!

Post by nerdlock »

As the title suggests, let's see those reshaped Mule handles... unfortunately the Mule team handle's shape doesn't fit well with my hands, thus I have been thinking about having someone reshape the handles into something more ergonomic for me. I know there have been several Forumers who have done these (I think Bolster was one that comes into mind) but I was thinking that it would be much better to consolidate these mods into one thread, for inspiration purposes among all else.

``Looking forward to seeing your modded Mule handles!

Index finger area given a tighter radius, jimping added under thumb, midpoint of handle slimmed at top and bottom, end bob'ed.

Someone did a high hexagonal handle for kitchen use that was cool, but don't recall who. I want to try that.

This was my first time using pins instead of screws, and I left a grove near the choil for Kydex to grip
