One of mine with 3D printed scales I found a model for online. Modified the model so there weren't any holes in it. You can vaguely see the recessed section near the front of the grip where the holes were. Not sure I like the styling, but I only swapped to them for the weight savings. Went from 4.9oz with the G10's to ~4.25oz with the 3D printed scales. Might try my hand at designing my own, but I'm still teaching myself the 3D modelling software in my free time.

Just a heads up , might want to post in Show your Mods thread . This thread Apollo started is for shots in his collection. Great picture though and like the scales ! MG2

Thx buddy the open shot is a bit to fuzzy for my taste but unthil i can make a new one its good enough. :smlling-eyes
Its a real gem indeed i find myself so lucky to have it. And in that condition its rather rare since the blue pua shells inlay is cracked in most cases. Wish they would use some more inlays again it does make a knife more beautiful.

Thx Dan! And indeed it really is a beauty shame it will never return in this form.
Also would like to see the cobra hood return one day. Really like it functionality and its pleasing the eye for me to. :squinting-tongue

I forgot to say how much I admire the Tuff pictures. The Tuff design is a great design and one I sadly passed on being a righty , one of the few I almost broke my self imposed rule . 😔 Dan
