Hi Darby! Looks awesome!

My PM2 M390 Blue Black Carbon fiber (two pics and one vid) on Instagram of Aramis Akhmedov, the craftsman that made the scales :)

green canvas micarta in my green canvas pants

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

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)?

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.

Any new cool scales guys?
