They were both Cerakoted. black and moss are the colors. All logos are gone cus the areas that are cerakoted get sandblasted first.

Not sure, someone else did the work. I sharpened them with my sharpmaker pretty easy

Just got my AWT scales for my Native 5 Salt. Had them installed within 20 minutes of taking them out of my mailbox. Super easy. Absolutely love the way they look and feel. This has always been one of my favorites, but now it's at a whole new level.

I went with the coated ones. Just thought the cerakote would be more durable

Para 3 in CPM-20CV.
Swapped "Mocha Nebula" anodized titanium scale and RIT dyed G10 for Cerberus skinny frag scales. (Were butterscotch, dyed to a Reisen brown.)

Here is a Siren with S90V steel I got a few weeks ago that I have been messing around with a little.

Have not done anything to the thumbhole in the blade, but I have fluted out the access area to the thumbhole in the CF scales quite a bit.

I just couldn't get my fat thumb comfortably to open the knife, other than that really like the knife. It's really different from my other Spyderco knives.

I didn't get a pic of the Siren before I had already cut the scales for better access, so there is nothing to compare to; but what I have done is made night and day change to my Siren.

This is a PM2 with vintage emerald green paper micarta scales. Zirconium Vader with oil slick finish for scale and contrast. There is also a blade by REK in S90v that I'm really enjoying.
