I want to put micarta or carbon fiber scales on one of my paramilitary 2. I've seen Cuscadi's name thrown around for scales. Does anyone have picture of his scales. And any suggestions of other places to look for aftermarket scales?
 
BladeHQ also carries custom aftermarket scales for the Para 2. IIRC, micarta is one of the choices. I think they're under Replacement Parts on their web site.

The site is in German, but Luke speaks English. I've dealt with Luke before and he is great to work with! I got his "vintage" griptilian scales and they are just beautiful. If you don't mind waiting 1-3 months, then go with Luke!

Can only speak highly of Luke. Cool guy and very quality product. His webpage is a bit misleading its not all the product they have. He will make you anything out of everything including grooved options and what not. He also does acid/stonewash.

He made my Bocote PM. Out of a single block of bocote which means the grain patterns match up across the top and bottom of the knife.

I just ordered some bone scales for my pm2. I can't wait for them to arrive
 
Allen Putman of bladescales.com makes some nice stuff too. On the website he only advertises g10, but he has been known to make micarta ones too
 
Puttman has some nice ones.
But I would go to the services section.
 
Might want to also check out forum user BellaBlades
Got this sweet lava flow kirinite scale for my 0560. I'm sure he could whip you up some PM2 scales.

Thanks for the input. I think I will order from cuscadi. Does anyone know what this material is?
Its from his tumblr account. The original pic was too big to attach.

I'd recomend looking at a material called Ctek also. It's an aluminum honeycomb reinforced with colored resins. It's very strong and is see-thru.

^ Hey, that aluminum honeycomb looks pretty nice

Do you know if it scratches up like regular aluminum?
-I would assume not; and assume the aluminum is only the silver part.
 
Apologies for reinvigorating an old thread: I'm looking for emerald green C-Tek PM2 scales - mahalo in advance.

The info is still current. Cuscadi and Suingab/G10.lt are both still making scales. ShepardCC on IG is another one. And Aratech.ru (Aramis) is also doing very good work. As for the specific C-Tek in Green, I think the first two are your best bet, since I don't think Shepard or Aramis work with it.
