Show Your Smocks!
Re: Show Your Smocks!
Love these scales Jimmy. Has inspired me to look at some RC Bladeworks scales for the Smock and definitely inspired my PM2 RIT Dye job.

You are correct about the notch and button lock. So much so,I now have two Smocks.Fly Fishing Rick wrote: ↑Tue Nov 15, 2022 12:10 pmThank you! The blade notch isn't so bad once you get used to it, I don't think I'd be willing to give up the button lock to get rid of it.
Spyderco owes you for the all the sales your photo's have generated. RC Bladeworks as well, since at least one will be wearing their scales.

Re: Show Your Smocks!
Glad I could help! I'm still holding out for an exclusive steel I like before getting my second smock. I like S30V just fine but I really love the character of tool steel and would prefer one in K390, M4, or something similar.JRinFL wrote: ↑Tue Mar 14, 2023 2:11 pmYou are correct about the notch and button lock.

Re: Show Your Smocks!
Your dang right! I have a page dedicated to RC Bladeworks just for some Smock scales. They need to at least send Jimmy a thank you card.

Re: Show Your Smocks!
I’m waiting for an exclusive myself. A tool steel version would round out the Smocks for me . Wish I had paid attention to some past variants that are not too pricey for my tastes.

Re: Show Your Smocks!
3rds on another exclusive Smock! Love the knife, but the variations are a bit hard to come by. Would love to see a K390, or something else amazingly cool! 15v? Magnacut?
