    Show your mods!

    Now, I like Spydercos just the way they are, but sometimes I just can't leave well enough alone. How about you? I think we need a thread just for showing off the hard work of your modifications to Spydercos. I'll start with mine...

    My Wharncliffes...





    the tip on the Pacific Salt...



    Made the Native easier to open...





    Pointy Salt 1 tip...



    D4 wave removal...



    Thanks for lookin'.

    - best wishes, Jazz.

    Bought this at a Spyderco Factory Sale with half of the blade snapped off. It started life as an SS Delica.

    Delica and Endura are great knives! They're the low priced crack samples that'll get you hooked on spyderco! Feed the need!

    Chapman,

    that is a "way kewl" little knife you've customed!
    I need to know though... what's it's name?
    Use your blades in the kitchen, it's great bonding time!

    Its either a Co-Delica (copilot + delica), a Delikat (Delica + Meerkat), or a Deligator (Delica + Navigator)...

    Here is my poor old native. The tip got reground handle now matches the opening hole and I added some grooves at the back underside of the handle.

    The notches at the back are a cool idea - I hope you don't mind if I copy you.

    LOL, it is pretty low tech, but I cut up an old catalog and taped the logo in the window of the case. I have had non-knife people comment on it (it seems some iPhone junkies like the idea of customization too).

    Of all my mods, this was the easiest/fastest and yet it gets to most comments...go figure.
