Hi Darby! Looks awesome!

Re: Custom scales pics.
Darby,
That looks LEGIT!!!!! I was hoping for green canvas micarta for the Shaman sprint, but it looks like it's coming in tan/natural micarta.
1. Who made those scales for you?
2. Is it possible to RIT dye natural micarta to OD?
Thanks!
Hamilton
Re: Custom scales pics.
Micarta scales for my Stretch. I had been thinking about replacing the clip, but I think it goes so much better with the new scales than it did with the original ones that I'll stick with it. For the curious, I had them made by suingab whose website is g10.lt.

Very nice!! Have been thinking for quite some time now to customize one of my Stretches just like that... or maybe denim Micarta.
The scales are a bit contured, right (can't quite see it on my phone screen)?

Re: Custom scales pics.
Sorry it took me so long to answer the question about the scales being contoured. I would consider them so, but not in the same sense that something like the Slysz Bowie is. The edges are radiused quite a bit more than the stock scales are. There is still a flat area on each scale. I hope the photo below is more helpful than the first one I posted.Wartstein wrote: ↑Wed Aug 28, 2019 2:53 pmjlw wrote: ↑Wed Aug 28, 2019 9:10 amMicarta scales for my Stretch.
