BK-16 vs SURVIVE! GSO 4.1

What did you make your homemade liners out of? I want to beef up my BK7 just a tad.

It seems like it is a little more hand filling, but maybe that's just because of the micarta texture.... I don't have a micrometer, so i'm not sure. That was my biggest complaint about the factory scales is that they just felt too small. With some home made liners they were alright... but I still didn't really care for the knife much. Factory micarta made all the difference to me. I wish they would just sell it as a factory option with stainless hardware. I'd pay $100 for the knife to come with micarta and stainless hardware.
 
I've done several sets. One of the easiest materials is just using plastic file folders from walmart. I use the Five-Star brand. They are fairly thin, so you may need to double or triple up on the layers. You can also use old DVD/video game cases. Xbox cases are cool with the neon green color. They are a little thick, but not bad.
