Hi all,
Does anyone knows where to get custom scales for my Caribbean,and Gayle Bradley2?i love both knife's,but the main reason to keep both are after market scales.hopefully you guy's can guide me in the right direction,thanks in advance!
 
Depending on where you live: Razor-Edge Knives or Keyman in the US(though I think keyman only does benchmades?). In Europe there are CuScaDi which I don't really want to recommend and an italian guy whose name I can'r recall right now.
 
Did you ever find custom scales for the Caribbean? I'm looking. Love the knife but the stock scales are weird looking to me.
 
The scales also kept me away from the Caribbean even though I’m dying to try one out. I remember Sal mentioning a titanium version that hopefully gets made.
 
That would be awesome! I think someone like Steve Butcher could do very well with some simple scales for that model. He does really nice work
 
i looked everywhere and mailed a LOT of custom scale makers/producers,nobody has interest in making scales for the Carribean or Gayle Bradley2.i am going to sell my Carribean and GB2,the new Autonomy2 has LC200N too,and as for the GB2 there are more knives with M4.

If you really want LC200N, there's always the SpydieChef. More expensive, but absolutely a great knife.
 
i had a Spydiechef but didn't like it,too small for my hands.that's why i'll wait for the Autonomy2.but thanks for your input!
 
I tried to do the pre-order on the autonomy 2 but I couldn't see how to get it into my cart. Were you able to do the pre-order? When are they supposed to drop?
 
The Caribbean scales would be very difficult to machine as he inside of the scales are machined to fit the skeletonized holes in the liners.

My first post so have mercy on me.

Wouldn’t scales be the perfect subject for 3D printing, or is the need for fiber glass in the mix or strength an over riding concern?

I like scales in different colors so I can grab a knife by color quickly, so say I don’t grab an s110v when I’m planning on prying off old urethane can lids. That’s a job for a chinese d2 clone black knife. Or a screwdriver truth be told, but I don’t always have a screwdriver in pocket.
