Nice color combo! Is that a scale swap from the K390 one?

Love it. May I ask what model that fixed blade is? Also assumed it was a Crucarta pm2 but it’s k390, aftermarket scales I guess?
LT Wright Frontier Valley. Great little knife in A2 tool steel. Made in Ohio.

The PM2 is my favorite. K390 with RGT green canvas micarta. They do great work!
Nice. Thanks. How’s the fit on the RGT scales, I seen a few reviews where they weren’t quite perfect and a little bit loose. Maybe that’s true a few years ago, how are yours?
I’ve used a few aftermarket scale makers, and RGT are the best by far. Great fit, and I like the texture better than the Spyderco factory micarta.
I'm happiest with Micarta and Tool Steel.

Top four in rotation: K390 + GCM PM2, ZCarta Shaman, Crucarta PM2, K390 + GCM Straight Spine Stretch.

You guys are making me reconsider the Smock. Looks great with that burlap micarta!

i'd like to see a smock 2 with the same blade shape, a 50/50 finger choil instead of that crazy blade cutout, and a more ergonomic handle. the blade is really attractive to me and so is the back end of the grip, but nothing in between makes sense to me.

Well... let's make the page toothier then... ;) (though the teeth actually can´t be seen in the pic)

... such a great EDC knife in my pocket!
I really like that it is starting to get a more used and personal look... scratched clip and such. :smlling-eyes

Thanks! Yes, it is. I felt that the red zome DLT exclusive looked better with a satin blade, as I have other models in the Deadpool black/red theme.

Dan is correct. I swapped the scales of the DLT red/zome coated exclusive and the K390 satin Endela.

I have avoided getting a Smock because of that blade cutout. The fully committed choil on the custom version looks so much better.
