I shortened this Ronin2 so I can legally conceal it in Colorado.
I took it down to just under 3.5 inches total blade length. That left me with 3 inches of sharpened blade.
I didn't get the angle quite as sharp as it was originally, but its close. I have big hands and didn't want to loose any more of the thumb rest so I stopped there. It is still quite pointy.

Re: Show your mods!
I'm experimenting with a MOONGLOW back spacer. I attempted using MOONGLOW as a back spacer material previously with no joy. The acrylic plastic is brittle and the lower tang of the spacer just snapped right off. That was before I started pinning the lower tang. This installation I have the lower tang pinned and so far... it appears to be working. I've thumb flick opened and closed the blade a hundred times or so and it has not broken the back spacer. I'll continue to play and time will tell... at least until I package it up and ship it out to the customer...

I had to FrankenSpydie this piece because I broke one of the CF scales...

That clip and back spacer look really good, kirilpetkov.

Re: Show your mods!
Thanks. I was nervous doing the jimping. I used a reinforced cutter wheel, and free handed it. Thanks for the tips and great idea, bro. It does feel way better now, and now I'll actually use it. Very nice design, other than the flipper in the way. :cool:Holland wrote: Looks great Jazz, nice touch with the jimping

Re: Show your mods!
I really like that. I could live without the flipper but that little bit that still sticks out would bug me to death so for now I've left mine alone.
All SE all the time since 2017

Re: Show your mods!
Should be no problem to get it out of the way - just grind off more. I like the feel and look this way. It bugs me a bit sticking out the top, but it's not a hindrance, so, no problem. It does still flip with a bit of wrist, too.Evil D wrote:I really like that.

Re: Show your mods!
I think the acu digital camo scales and black coated blade Para2 is one of the sexiest color combo's on earth. Since the Manix 2 is my favorite Spyderco knife, I thought I'd try to make my own Manix 2/Para2 hybrid.

That is the best mod you can do to a Delica in my opinion .
