Are you a "Pimp"? Post 'em!

Here's my pimped out Buck/Strider and slightly modded CRKT M16-04

I made these from poplar wood with a Dremel and a cordless drill. They’re stained with 2in1 stain/polyurethane stuff from walmart. I want to make some G10 or micarta handles at some point and thought cheap wood would be a good initial practice medium. One side came out a little worse than the other but I’m pretty happy with my beginner efforts. This is my second attempt; the first set is contoured the same but has a smooth finish and a dark mahogany stain. The others definitely look the part of a first attempt though… :o

Well, I don't think this quite qualifies as a 'pimp' job, but here is an SAK that I rehandled some time ago.

When I first saw this knife, my first thought was that you had turned it into a kerambit with the magnifying ring as your pinky ring.
Well, I never claimed to be mentally stable. :eek:
 
Cool thread :D
This started as a Buck 619, the rubber handled version of the classic 119.

The handle is imitation stag or bone-stag. Mortised, pinned and epoxied.
The guard is brass.
Now all I have to do is get up the nerve to cut the rubber handle off of this one
