EDC your BK-2 at the office on 'Casual Fridays'...

[Doogoon]

This has inspired an idea for a give away contest. I hope no one beats me to it.

I hear Thrillbilly's been away preparing for the "Denim Invasion"; off bedazzling jean-jackets in his secret underground ogre lair...

*Red rover, red rover, we call Thrillbilly on over!

Very sheek man! Makes me wish I was still rockin a mullet. Business in the front, party in the back.

Never underestimate the power of beer induced genius! It is genuinely interesting

Oh yeah? Well there's plenty more beer where that came from!

How's about a back-pocket protector for knife-knerds?

I like the friction folder. Who made it?

I also like how the knives multiplied when you stuck a few in the pocket.

The friction folder was made for me by fellow forum member Defaultuser. Great guy who does great work (mostly makes fixed-blades.) This one is in CPM154 steel, natural linen micarta scales, titanium pocket clip and a cap-lifter built into the tang.

On a serious note, I've been reading some threads about folks making denim micarta scales for their knives, which I think is pretty nifty.

Did it for my 11, made it oh so much more comfortable than a cordwrapped one.
Cool disguise! Nobody'll ever know!

Feel free to hijack this nowhere thread and post some pics of your work!! I wanna see! :thumbup:

I've considered adding a piece of denim to a clip on a folder to make it more stealthy when wearing jeans.

Lmao. I miss this place something fierce.

Ha this just made my day, this just makes me glad that I go to college in the ADK's and nobody really looks at you twice for carrying a knife

 

[wasatchdan]

Okay, I carried my 2 all day today at work. It was busy as hell. And hot, too, so I wasn't sure I'd be up for packing around a pound of extra steel on my belt.

I have to say, it wasn't all that bad. A little heavy, though. I was carrying in my AZWelke sheath, horizontally, and just to the right of my belt buckle. The sheath could have used a retention loop on the tip to help keep it from flopping around so much. Still, overall, a success.

I was going to get some pics, but forgot my camera. Maybe I'll pack it again Monday and take pics this time.

Lol nice!

 

[timberweasel]

Well, I've learned two things since this thread started:

1) There is a way to carry even a Machax on Casual Fridays that will go completely unnoticed and has nothing to do with fancy camo wraps...

And ...possibly unrelated...

2) If you decide to whip up a couple 'back-pocket protectors for knife-knerds', always use old jeans...

They're ugly and the fit and finish is terrible, but they work OK

Sorry for the bad cellphone pics and crap lighting.

 

[timberweasel]

Very unique! Thanks for sharing your pics! :thumbup:

Really the only reason that I did the grooves was so that I could actually tighten the bolts down without them digging into my hands. I'm definitely not skilled enough to countersink the nuts in a shape that would grip them enough to allow tightening.
