That purple stonewash is awesome! Did it wear away the lock at all?

Very nice mod Remnar
Re: Show your mods!
Added a wire clip to my Persistence. Replaced the rear standoff with a pivot assembly from a donor Persistence. Cut grooves in the stock scale with a dremel to accept the wire clip.

just tinkering with the Native5

Thanks. It's a pretty easy mod if you're handy with a rotary tool. Unfortunately it's not very economical unless you have a broken Persistence to scavenge the pivot assembly from.Holland wrote:Wow! Very well done sir, great mod indeed

Re: Show your mods!
I might want to try that deep wire clip mod on some other G10 knives I have! Thanks for the idea, nice work!
What bit did you use on a dremel, just wondering? Or was it a cut-off wheel?

Couldn't resist. I love black and yellow together and black and toxic green is just a little too zombie operator operating zombie like for me.

Agreed, but I really like the "leftover knife" too!

Re: Show your mods!
"Leftover knife" is a throwback to the old Jester in that color!
I saw somebody posted one on BF recently and I thought it was a blade swap into one of these new USN handles (if it's even possible to go from Jester to Ladybug and reuse Ladybug hardware or something).
Either way cool stuff. Nice zipper pulls too.
