Spyderco Military (New gen), wanting to get new scales, titanium or CF

#1

Post by Chayts9487 »

Hi wanting to know if any is aware of someone who makes custom scales either Titanium or Carbon Fibre, might as well go full tilt and get a new clip and screws.
I have a new generation Military.
I can’t buy the straightaway but as long as I have a name or website who I can follow up with, in the near future.
I’m in Australia

I haven’t seen anything for the Military 2 yet, but I’d keep my eye on RGT and maybe LynchNW.
I'm happiest with Micarta and Tool Steel.

Top four in rotation: K390 + GCM PM2, ZCarta Shaman, Crucarta PM2, K390 + GCM Straight Spine Stretch.

If you like the light weight feel and balance of your Military, I'd advise against Titanium scales. The Military feels like it does because of the minimally framed G10 handles. I had one of the Titanium Frame-lock on one side, CF on the other and it felt terribly unbalanced.
