Going for black usually doesn't come out black. It is well done at any rate.

That does look sweet, did you use heat to color the titanium?
I never really liked the clear, the blue G-10 is a very nice improvement.

Thumbz, that Ambitious looks really nice and really comfortable. Not too many Spydies with nice rounded edges like that.

My White Maple Tenacious. My first attempt at knife modding. Stripped a coupla screws that I probly should get replaced but it turned out rather nice. Its a great user.
The beauty of the second amendment is that it will not be needed until they try to take it.
