GLW/McAhron colab

Heres the collaboration knife David of Great Lakes Waterjet and I did.It is d2 1/4".David did the profile and initial bevels on his waterjet,leaving me with about .060 to remove.I then drilled and tapped her for holes,heat treated it and put a handle on it.I then added LED's,one shining forward and three under the scales.I also added a firefighters shield that I did using files and added a red bicycle like reflector to.I replaced the fragile LED switch with a robust one and hid the electronics/batteries,switches,etc under the scales.Scales as well as the sheath is orange G-10.There is also glow in the dark material between the four g-10 layers so it will glow in the dark.David and I did this for his wife's cousin who is a firefighter whom successfully beat cancer.It was a fun project.

Aptos? Bicycle reflectors? Do you know about the post office jumps?
ps. I think that's a pretty interesting knife, very practical for those in need of such a tool.
Oh, the wonders of custom knives! There's always something new to enjoy

NICE knife! Very good design, I like the seat belt/skinner cutter, and the bull nose.

A very good looking rescue tool. It looks very strong and has very useful features.
