Hi all, just poking around as the new fella around here and I am finding some very good info on this site. With the hello to all said, I have a question that may be answered by someone...I just received my Christmas gift from my wife in the mail today...a BM Nimravus plain edge tanto with aluminum scales...problem is, I ordered G-10 scales on the knife. Well, to be brief, I really like the feel of the aluminum after holding it, so I will not send it back. But, being in WI, that aluminum gets REAL cold in the winter, plus I would like to have the "beat you to death" durability of G-10 to swap out. On BM's website, they have G-10 scales for sale, but they are at retail cost and are also on back order. Does anyone know where I can purchase the G-10 scales only? I have been pert near everywhere on the web and can find no-one except the actual BM website...thanks in advance!
 
Welcome to the forum.
You may try callin BM and asking them if they know of a place that sells them. Or you could try calling a few shops, or sites, and asking if they will have any. Thats the best I can think of.
 
I tried all of the above my friend. It seemed to be a "back order" dead end or an "I don't know of any dealers who would carry our product" response...LOL...I do have one waiting indefinitely on back order from BM though...it will probably come in when the ice thaws, winter will be over and I won't need the scales any more...LOL...Murphy's law.
 
Try going to the custom makers on this site, someone could make you G10 or Micarta Scales. I have thought of doing this with my Nim myself.
 
CNC, I don;t know what pretty near everywhere on the web means. TO some, that could be 20 or 30 retailers, to others, maybe 4. Where have you been? I'll compare that against my list and maybe pitch a few site addresses out.

I have the Nim in sand G-10. Since I KNOW I'll get another someday, the next one will be in aluminum. By the way, I got mine from thebladeshop (they were good to me but shop at your own risk) If you look and they have G-10, do a search on them before you order
