I decided my D4 SS needed some grip so that I'll accually use it, so here it is. I used a Dremel with diamond bits, various sandpaper grits, and some polish (in case anyone cares)...













It accually feels quite nice in various grips now. I didn't go all fancy on purpose - I plan to use it, and mainly was going for some grip. There are a couple scratches on it, but I'm sure it'll aquire more. Anyway, thanks for lookin'.

- best wishes, Jazz.

****, I wish Spyderco offered this as an option! It looks fantastic. Good job! :D

very cool.

the big bro version of the d'fly etched :P

WOW, that looks great!


Must have a steady hand.






Great work.

Looks really good. Great Job!

1. I like how there is a border around the texturing.
2. I like the added jimping.
3. Heck, I like the whole knife! Looks great!

Looks great! I don't usually like SS, but I'd consider buying one of those if it came that way.

that looks great jazz!
the one reason i never liked the stainless versions was because they felt so slippery.
problem solved.
the jimping looks very functional too!

Wow, that is so very nice. Great work!

Very nice work. The big jimping on the handle is interesting, looks like
it will really lock in the grip.

It's **** Superb! Beauty and function. Great Job

I have always stayed away from using most of my SS scaled Spydies because if you just look at the wrong way they scratch and get ugly quick.

I hope Sal sees this and brings it to life in a production model. He can do what he did with the etched Cricket or Spin and then ad the jimping...

awesome work as usual Jazz.

i wouldnt carry a regular SS but that looks like one i would, every custom piece of work you did on it is sweet.

That looks amazing. How long did it take to complete?

very impressive! That is the reason I avoided purchasing a SS, if they offered that, I would definitely be more inclined to purchase one. Great job

Looks great! How long did this take? I am definitely thinking about doing a similar treatment to a SS-handled knife in the future..

This treatment would look great on a Lava, in my opinion.

Nice work: it's made me think of doing the same to a Police.

Super awesome job Jazz! LOVE it!!

Very nice! I like the bordering and it addresses many issues I have with stainless steel handles.

Nice job. This should be offered by Spyderco!
