bump...

My very first Spydie and sprint, the 2011 PM2 CTS-20CP.

The blade was swapped into an all black handle years ago, and it has been heavily reprofiled. It now lives in the tool drawer as a cardboard separator for recycling. Still cuts like a champ after 10 years.

#1 M4 Manix XL with micarta scales and reprofiled edge. Spent months performing corrosion tests on it viewtopic.php?f=2&t=87786

#2 132/600 C95 Manix sprint. Grail knife for me. Got it in mint condition, collectors grade, even the box was pristine. First day carrying it, batoned fatwood to start a fire :)

#3 Rex45 Chief. Modded the scales and forced a patina on the blade. Reprofiled edge to a thin, shaving sharp 300 grit.

#4 M4 Chief. Dyed and contoured the scales, still need to reprofile this one.

#5 K390 / G10 Police, swapped Pakkawood scales on to it. Taken apart multiple times to sand rust out of the liners, patina on the blade, reprofiled to a very thin edge, carried and used hard for years.
