Howdy all. I was wondering if anyone has a method for making G-10 grippier. I purchased a Gerber SLG not too long ago. It's a great little knife, but the handle is just a tad too slippery for me. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks.

Well, there can be two things I can think of sandpaper or a bead blaster. If your not to concerened on how the knife really looks, take some coarse grit paper and rough up the scales. You could also remove the scales and have them beadblasted any machine shop I would think wouldn't have a problem doing this for you; or you could take a dremmmel tool and stipple the surface of the scales, doesn't end up looking too bad. Just remembered that one.
