Customized production knives YOU DID YOURSELF

^^^^ what material is the white on the scales

I like it looks good with the orange liners
 

Looks great. I love the colors and the detail with the thin orange material.

I took a production BRK 3v fox river and turned it into a modified imp at one of their grind ins.

Sanded coating and small attempt at vinegar patina. Plunge lines got botched, and I didn't get it sanded as well as I would have liked, but frankly, I got tired! Oh well, it's definitely my knife now, and it does slice a lot better!

Some might consider any customization you can do with a nothing but a T8 and a dream, unworthy of mention, but this is mine and I really really dig it.

Cold Steel Eland cut and filed to resemble a traditional Spanish navaja. Painted handle. Sanded blade to remove logos.

Had this Becker for awhile, haven't been using it much since I picked up an Eskabar in D2. Took it out and reground the convex it's been sporting since I bought it, blade has already been stripped, ground the tip into more of a clip point from the drop point it came with. Didn't wash off the Sharpie mark on the handle...

Thanks, I don't do a lot of noticeable mods. On this one I also softened up the underside of the guard. This overall shape is very useful/versatile, can be held many ways and the addition of a pointier tip is a nice upgrade.
 
Nothing major. Just a simple anodizing of the backspacer and a more aggressive stonewash on the handle.

Made a mini Carter Prime yesterday. Chopped about 1/2" off of handle and blade, rounded off the edges and blade spine.
