Air in a new suit

[coiledwire]

I just got this back from spketch today and I'm so stoked that I had to make a thread just for it.

Ironwood scales, a touch thicker than stock, and flush with liner; exactly how I wanted and came out better than I expected. This just kicked out the D-fly and SAK out of my coin pocket. So stoked!

Wow, great job!
When I get around to re-scaling mine I'll know where to go. :thumbup:

Classy new suit

Nicely done. Is there a cutout for the release? Hard to tell from the pic. I had mine done in Ghost Jade.

Wow that looks awesome! I've been thinking about making some scales for my Air, though the stock scales are really nice too. Nice man, Enjoy!

That is one sexy knife!

Thanks for the complements. It's a beauty.

Yes there is a cutout for release. I've seen your jade air and it looks good as well. You should post it here too.

Thanks, but all I can take credit for is the pictures. It's the craftsmanship of spketch that made my imagination a reality.

I pretty sure there some more modified (see improved) Airs out there. I would like to see them, so if you have one post it here.

Here it is, with a little pocket sheath I had made for my smaller knives. It has a belt loop for vertical/horizontal carry, as well as a clip for in-pocket.

...and out in the sun.

I forgot if you mentioned it, but did you anodized the liners blue? It looks like you did.

And nice pocket sheath. I'm considering either something like that or a lanyard with a pocket dangler clip.

 

[gooeytek]

Yup, the liners were electro-anodized blue.

Beautiful!
That's the nicest Ironwood I've ever seen.
