Wharncliffe Delica Handle Swap?
Re: Wharncliffe Delica Handle Swap?
Here ya go....photo isn't great (sorry)...but I really like this knife.
Re: Wharncliffe Delica Handle Swap?
Nice, thanks. The shiny clip looks good. I almost did that too.

Kenny, it finally came! How do you like it? Were you having trouble deciding the scale swap color?

I was surprised how much I liked the Black scales and black clip side of the knife , but the other side just looked too plain in Black FRN .
I decided to try a bit of mix and match to satisfy my tastes .
The black side really does disappear in your pocket and hides itself nicely , but the Orange gives it some flair when its out in the open and in your hand .
I'm not totally sold on the color combo , but the fun is I can change it at anytime .

Finally got my second one for EDC. Smoothed out the edges, etc., and filed out a place near the opening hole to ease opening on these G10 scales. When the Lock Tite cures by tomorrow, I'll have a new EDC, and Bob's yer uncle.

Perfect , I carry a Delica with similar scales everyday at work without a exception .

They're identical. You told me where to get them. I just modded them a bit. You know how us modders are.harronek wrote:Perfect , I carry a Delica with similar scales everyday at work without a exception .

Re: Wharncliffe Delica Handle Swap?
Well, I guess I just much prefer FRN to G10. The custom scales I got and modded and smoothed feel great, but I needed FRN for this knife. So, I swapped them to blue.
After the Lock Tite sets, it'll be a swell EDC, along with a little big knife (Dfly, Manbug, or Ladybug).

It's quite a transformation. I think it would also look great in a dark blue, ala the BBS Lil' Matriarch.JRinFL wrote:It looks so good in that blue!Jazz wrote:Well, I guess I just much prefer FRN to G10.

Re: Wharncliffe Delica Handle Swap?
Yes, it would, Robbob. It would also look good with the blue of the Kahr version, and with all the bead blasting.
