A mule with g10 scales
Show your mods!
My "mods" arent as complex as some shown before, but nevertheless:
Just filed of the "hump" on the choils, and adjusted the backspacers, to allow the knifes to be a little slimmer when closed.
Got rid of the fool-tip on the Delica and did a scandi grind on the Endura, worked out pretty good!

Hey, thanks a lot for the kind words. I guess I need to make a workshop video to show my stuff (LOL...I have no work shop, I usually do this stuff on the patio as my kids play around me). Honestly, it is not anything impressive. The videos I have made (link below) were either done on the patio, or at my kitchen table.Jijoel wrote:I really like your pimp jobs.
Great file work.
Looks really classy.
Could you show the tools you used to do the job.
For the lock bar embellishments you see here I used a couple (2) small files, a small vice, and a T-6 driver (to remove the lock bar). That is it!
Before I cropped this image, you could see my kids playing in the background. I had to stop work several times to fill water balloons. This work is relaxing (like sharpening), I find myself taking frequent breaks to enjoy family and surroundings.
My entire list of knife-warranty-voiding tools is a bit more lengthy, but still it is pretty basic stuff.
Thanks,

Nice work friend! I pretty much guarantee those knives will become your favorites now (if they were not already).Jijoel wrote:I did some file work on 2 spydies with some inspiration of Units file work.
I also rounded the spines of both blades because i was planning to that that on the delica for some time.
I have some really expensive stuff that is nearly meaningless compared to my 60 dollar Endura/Salts that I hacked up.

I thought I posted these the other day, but it appears I did not.
New more aggressive jimping on the Pacific Salt (with an ever growing list of modifications).
The edge on this thing has been changed again too, but I can not photograph it. I lowered the angle below 15 per side and have polished it to hair whittling. I am really becoming impressed with H-1 more every day. I consider this knife my mad-scientist knife (I will try all sorts of crazy experiments with it).
