Waved Matriarch 2

#1

Post by kwakster »

The Matriarch 2 is a wonderful knife of course, but it was missing something.
I just finished taking care of that.

Beside the Wave function i polished the spine and also hollowed out the metal "roof" above the Spyderco hole, which creates another spot to place your thumb.
I think it's a more complete knife this way, what do you guys think ?

Does this make it a multi-tool now?

Oh, and by the way, that's about as nice of a modified wave as I have ever seen - very clean.

I agree with the others. That is a very nice and clean-looking wave mod. I always prefer the ones that leave the opening hole intact.

You know, that's a dang good job kwakster. Great work. YOu made a sick knife

Mmmh, i don't know about the Pink Flamingo being a good name for a specialized knife like this.
In my hometown that's the name of a certain mansion where certain ladies offer certain services for money,
