Re: Show your mods!
Probably one of the last 2 or 3 I'll be posting in this thread, but here's my Stretch I shortened, with a Delica to show the length...

Did a fun blade swap
Re: Show your mods!
A couple MXG deep carry clips. What a difference, especially on the Para 3

Re: Show your mods!
I've created another GrindMod Delica... I call this one the Verrazano.
The prototype scales have been machined... 1X1 checkerboard LVA carbon fiber with the same CF for the back spacer. The sculpted pocket clip is 2X2 twill LVA CF.

Re: Show your mods!
That looks bloody fantastic Boomer!
Re: Show your mods!
Wow, that looks great! I'd sure like to hold one of those. How's the overall width compared to stock?

Re: Show your mods!
This particular set of CF scales are each .150" thick... the stock Delica FRN scale thickness are .135" each... so the overall width of the knife is thicker by .030"... or slightly less than 1/32".
I haven't attempted to fit a stock pocket clip but the stock Torx screw length for the pocket clip might not be long enough with the thicker scales...

Wow BOOMER52, that's a pretty slick Delica. If the FRN ones had a handle shape like that I would buy one. The choil is very nice.
Any chance of a similarly shaped set of scales for the Endura? And do you have a website where you sell these?

Here's another profile modified Delica/Verrazano...
Re: Show your mods!
Howdy all,
Just wanted to share a couple images of some of the fine work the Cuscadi team did for me recently.
They took a stock Ouroboros and gave all the metallic components a nice stonewash, then crafted a fully 3D contoured set of ‘python’ micarta scales. It feels absolutely amazing in hand and the countoured micarta is stunning.

Another GrindMod Delica/Verrazano with toxic green G10 liners...
Re: Show your mods!
Couldn’t remember if I posted this one before? Changed the blade shape, tip kept catching on things and needed somewhere to put my thumb. Acid stonewash. Next took down the handle a little and rounded the edges. Much better in my hand now. Don’t think the lock stick is ever going away on this one, ( it had seemed to be working itself out, then got worse again?) but that’s ok as when I use it, it’s for chopping branches and such. I definitely want the lock to be tight.
If you're wielding the sharpest tool in the shed, who's going to say that you aren't...?
