Kinda a noob here. Did a search and have asked on other areas in the forum but can't find an answer. I have the Shot Show Onslaught and Griptilian knives and really like the look of the standoff/spacers. I have a standard production 746 but would like to add red, silver, or maybe green spacers similar to the Shot Show versions. Where can someone order these?
 
I don't know anyone that sells the exact ones you need, your best/easiest bet would be to have yours anodized/cerakoted. As far as stand off's on a mini grip, lets put it like this (and I'm not trying to be a dick) but if you have to ask how to do it your best bet is going to be a LE grip that already comes factory with them, or going to a customizer and paying to have it done. Moddifying a factory [regular] grip with its 2 piece handle to take stand offs isn't exactly a simple mod like a back spacer delete.

There was just a thread on stand offs on a grip earlier today but now I can't find it.
 
I don't want to change the grip but rather change the spacer from the plastic piece to the metal ones like the LE version in either silver, black, or red.
 
Yes but the griptilian doesn't have a spacer, the 2 scales each have 1/2 of the "spacer" molded as part of them so again it takes alot of modification to make it work- you have to grind down the extra material then make a way for it to all work together.
 
The shot show Griptilian has red anodized spacers.
The shot show Onslaught has blue anodized spacers.
I want to modify a regular production Onslaught with spacers like the shot show version but in a different color. Should not be difficult at all once I figure out where to get the spacers.
 
Ahh, gotchya, I misread and thought you had a [standard] griptilian and wanted to add spacers (which isn't uncommon for people to do). Sorry didnt realize you were talking about the onslaught.

Why not just get your existing spacers cerakoted? I don't know about your area but the local shop here will coat tiny pieces like that for a few dollars if you pick a color they're already using for something else. Really it would probabily be as cheap or cheaper than finding and buying new ones in a custom color like your looking for and being what they are the [already very tough] cerakote would barely get scratched. Just an idea.
 
The standard Onslaught has a solid plastic spacer. I want to put three in like the limited edition version but not in blue.
 
I have asked in an Onslaught 746 specific thread with no answers. I've emailed Benchmade and was told the spacers/stand-offs were only for limited edition knives and they do not sell them individually. I understand that they don't want copycat knives coming out with people trying to sucker others. I measured both my shot show knives and the red and blue spacers are different measurements.
