pocket carry clip isn't great the turned up part is right at the lock bar cutout, so it catches...and screws stick out so harder to seat all the way

Finished this, this weekend, putting the scales and backspacer from Original Goat on the 3V blade. The craziest thing, 95 knives and thirty years later, think I hit a rest stop in my collecting. I have plenty of grails much more expensive and rare than this project, but for me at least, this is the most “right knife” I’ve ever felt. Completely, totally, satisfied with it. With a knife. Finally. For the first time ever, it scratches every itch. I am at peace… I have achieved knifeostasis! You folks know the feeling or lack thereof i’m talking about…

I'm feeling like I have way too many favorite knives, but it feels great

Man you got this one fast! Is it hollow ground? I couldn't tell from the photos for sure.

I was just looking at those scales for mine as well. Thoughts on them?

Yes. The feel is like you could cut an atom in half. As for the scales… I love OG’s stuff. I’ve only purchased three times but I’ve seen their work on other knives. The scales fit perfect, however the backspacer required a tiny bit of diameter increase (talking micrometers) in the screw capture pin holes to fit right. I say that assuming if I forced them they would have popped in, their tolerances have always been just right, just didn’t want to force if I didn’t have to. I love the feel, and the look, weight, and surface feel is exactly like a Les George VECP v3 now, just thinner. Which was my previous EDC forever. So it feels perfect to me.
