Matt, how much did those cost? I'm not going to copy you, just curious! I'm thinking they weren't cheap! Definitely one of my favorite customs I've seen on this forum.

Thanks :D It's becoming a popular material. Theres a handful of these skinny scales that were sold, and I've seen some Para3, Smock and Native scales like this floating around too. Only a matter of time before someone does a Shaman. I've also seen shred cf with gold and silver.

Rough estimate, Scales 120, titanium clip 20, lanyard tube 20. So about $160 on top of the cost of a Rex45 para3.

It's a week away from RexTober! I'm going to start a little early with the Rex45 carry and since we have so many more models with Rex45 I thought I'd dig this thread back up.

And those scale swaps with dlc and burnt orange fit right in with the Halloween theme!

Incidently I got my first REX 45 knife just some days ago and don't think it will leave my pocket through October anyway.. :)
And today the weather in the mountains got pretty october-ish already...

Thanks, Larry! :)

Yes, I am glad I got that Manix! Used it a lot already despite having it for just a few days now and love the steel so far (the model anyway, but that I did know beforehand since it is my third Manix 2 LW)!

Here are the three other mountain shots with this knife I took so far, should you care to have a look.

I did see those and they are incredible! The one with the roads in the valley make me wanna zip my car through those curves because it reminds me of a TopGear/The GrandTour shot, if you're familiar with the shows.
