Boker Armed Forces Tanto 2 ALTERED

[DD1]

What I did was grind down the guard located on the spine of the blade, leaving the one on the edge side. Yes, this takes away the "Wave" option, but it allows a better place for my thumb when the knife is opened. It also carries ALOT better in pocket with that one guard removed, plus it is a flipper anyway so the top guard wasn't really needed..

PIC BEFORE REMOVING THE ONE GUARD

PICS AFTER THE ONE GUARD REMOVED

THIS IS A LARGE KNIFE, THE GUARD ON THE SPINE WAS VERY UNCOMFORTABLE IN POCKET, MADE A BIG DIFFERENCE

FAIRLY CLEAN GRIND, THIS KNIFE IS VERY INEXPENSIVE SO WHO CARES

Now you just need to give the whole blade a nice stone washed/bead blasted finish.

I thought about that.. I may do it when the coating starts to scratch up..

Thread Revival!

I've got the same knife and I like what you've done. Think I'll knock off that top tang as well. thanks for the idea!

That knife has enough jimping on the handle to send a spyderco fanboy into a hysterics... lol.


Solid modification though; stonewash that beast!
