"Antique Gold" CQC7s

[John Hollister]

Many of you may remember the "Antique Gold" Micarta scaled Commander that was customized for a buddy of mine, Cal. Link

Well, Cal and Tom Stratton have done it agian.

Cal is "Wrong handed" fella and as such, loves all things left handed, including knives. Recently he came into a few NIB Benchmade/Emerson CQC7s. The ones he had customized were one "regular sized" BM970SBTLH and the other is the four inched BM975SBTLH.

Tom Stratton is a customizor that Cal and I ran into at last years Blade Show in Atlanta and as always, he did an outstanding job on these CQC7s.

As you can see, in addition to rescaling the knives in "Antique Gold" linen Micarta, Tom also filed the top edge of the blade to match the Commander.

Tom will have a table set up on Atlanta and if I recall correctly, these knives will be sitting on his table if you'd like to see them in person.
