Did the standard Royal Blue Rit Dye treatment on the Camo PM2. About an hour in the pot. Adding vinegar to the bath really helped.
Re: Show your mods!
Abbazaba, That PM2 turned out great, nice job!

Re: Show your mods!
I kind of like the idea of just some good old throwback Woodland Camouflage with like organic rounded shapes... not the digitized pixel.
Going back to Caly.
Re: Show your mods!
That looks great. I bet some heat anodizing to the hardware would look great on this knife. Have you ever thought about something like that?

Re: Show your mods!
Featherblade, that's beautiful! I love a shiny spine, and the hole looks great (though I prefer sharp holes, yours looks nice). Love the dip in the blade. Thanks for sharing. :cool:

Re: Show your mods!
Just looking at your pictures makes my thumb feel good. I love the spine, too. How did you do it?

Featherblade, nice mod on the blade shape and polish ! :)
:spyder: adds color to your knife addiction :D
Re: Show your mods!
I've thought about polishing the inside of a thumb hole, but I'd want to keep the sharp edge. Looks very good though.

Indeed, a clever simple tool!
I'll post these here, too.
Not much of a custom mod on my part, since I just bolted them together, but I am very happy with the result and Mr. Lynchs' work.

Re: Show your mods!
I created a flare in the edge of the tang to ease it over the detent ball on a liner lock.
Turns out the Company used the same mod years ago on the Para 2, props to bearfacedkiller.
There is a thread about this idea at viewtopic.php?f=2&t=69907

Nothing here that others haven't done better. Felt compelled to get a S30V DLC blade into my Lightweight.
