Does anyone know of a craftsman that makes custom scales for the Amalgam? I reached out to G10.it and he can’t make them. Any ideas would be appreciated!
 
I'd be interested too. I've looked everywhere and can't find anything.
 
We can't be alone in wanting custom scales. Hopefully a maker will take notice of an opportunity to be the first to offer them.
 
Just to be clear, I’m not producing scales. It was just a personal project for fun.

I can make the data files available, but they’re only as good as they need to be to work on the 3D printer. The dimensions would need to be massaged in order to work right in a machining process. If a maker were so inclined, they would still need a sample knife to fit to, and it would have to be worth their while to do the rest of the tinkering.
 
Maybe we should pester Spyderco to make a run with G10 or micarta scales, and a DLC coated blade for those of us who like that look.

Yes, I was pointing out that you were working on some stuff. I wasn’t implying that you were producing anything.
 
bumping this - anyone have any leads on aftermarket Amalgam scales? I havent been able to locate anything in my own search so thought Id ping the hive. Thanks
