301 scales

NeverMore1701 · Nov 5, 2012

Since my wife stole my 301 I'm on the hunt for custom scales for it. Anyone have a good source?

I have been looking for quite awhile with no success. There were some people doing them when the 0301 was first released, but they all seem to be out of the game now. If you find someone, let me know too! Good luck. :thumbup:

He is one that is "out of the game". I have tried contacting him several times through several different methods and have never gotten a response.

I know most of the guys don't like dealing with speedsafe... which wouldn't be a big deal if the 030X had a stand-alone detent like the 0350s. I even posted in the "Wanted: Knifemaker / Craftsman / Related Services" section about a month ago and still haven't found anyone willing to do it.

You could contact Luke at Cuscadi he made this scale for me.

Adding the speed safe is easy, just need a dremel and half a noodle in your brain

I must be missing the half a noodle.

That's very nice! How much did it run you, if you don't mind me asking?

I believe he moved to Japan and as SO said, hasn't been heard from since.

It was just over $100. Luke has lots of materials to choose from as well.
