I have just recently been getting into carbon fiber . It sure does look great. While looking at the "empty your pockets" thread I noticed a few of them. I was hoping to get together a list and pictures with your guys help of different knives so I can start my collection! I'm am getting a carbon Fiber UT6. So it starts there. :D
Now I wish I had bought the CF UTX70 instead of my canvas one. Oh well, I just have to get another one. Damn. :)
I would love to get my hands on custom CF handels for my 84MM SAK!:eek:
 
I'm not sure how much carbon fiber by weight is here but It is mostly carbon fiber. Thought you might get a kick out of it. Sorry for the off topic response.

For cool carbon fiber, I'd go with William Henry knives. The carbon fiber is contoured, and shaped, which brings out a different look on the carbon fiber. It's not flat like most you see. With a slightly textured surface, you don't see scratches. My Microtech LCC D/A has the same type of texturing and contouring. I think the CRKT M-16 series in Carbon fiber looks cool, as well. They are bead-blasted, and the effect is subdued. I don't prefer the Shiny Flat look of carbon fiber slabs, but that's just me. One knife that had the carbon fiber thing down perfectly on handle slabs was the Boker Skywalker. The rest of the knife was less than perfect, but the CF was FORMED into the handle shape! You had the cool 3-D effects of a flat piece, but the wear-ability of the contoured/textured type. Sorry, no pics.

Oooh, carbon fiber...

How about a Warren Thomas keychain/neck knife, with hybrid cabon fiber and titanium construction? The Ti is anodized, and there is carbide bonded to the cutting edge as neither carbon fiber or titanium take or hold a very good edge.

USAFSP: Oooooooooh, I totally dig the DDR eye candy! Scweeeeeeet!! Thanks for sharing! I have some DDR eye candy srriving in 4-6 months.
 
my ralph mini maxx 4" has CF handles, i have never seen/heard of another that did, must be at least a couple out there mine is #3, darrel told me he made 4 IIRC, i really like CFs looks myself, i dont think its as stout as G10 though, but its stout enough.

i also have an old CRKT M16 CF, ya dont see those much anymore, they were high $$ for CRKT.
