Great job! Now what are you going to do with the leftovers? If you find something that works in the old rivet holes, definitely let us know where you got them. Cheers, Radioactive :)

are the frn scales still usable and can you purchase new screws to replace the rivets? With the s30v I think that would still be an excellent knife, but that g-10 and s110v has the wow factor. How is the opening and closing action after re-assembly?

Congrats on a great new knife

btw, is there a reason why the s110v blade has that extra notch on the blade tang?

I have a spare set of sprint skeletonized liners I'm saving in case I ever decide to do this.

Thanks people - have wow screw pins on order to re-assemble the FRN scales with the substituted S30V blade.

Have miked the holes which pan out at 2.9/3.0 mm....tested today....so will re-assemble the FRN to a good use light weight folder with S30V blade.

Will post pics later.

I wonder if they plan on doing S110V/G-10 or S30V/FRN or S35VN/FRN one of these days.

GORGEOUS!!! That's some excellent work there, maybe you should be called "MadMaster" instead of MadRookie. Great edge and work. Cheers, Radioactive :)

Why won't the blade come out of the S110V without taking the scales apart?

Pulling the pivot doesn't release it?

I bought 2 S110V because I thought about doing a swap.
