Yeah, don't ever wear them again. Send them to me and I'll make sure I never let you wear them.
 
Show off! I would add other words to that but I'm not sure what the rules are on swearing in the forums ;P I'm just super jealous. But yes, it makes it look fat! Such an ugly knife! I CAN'T LIE TO MYSELF I WANT ONE
 
Haha, ya bastid. That looks freakin' sweet brother.
 
This is a picture of my BK-9 with micarta grips.

You'll notice that it is not a tweener. That's because I don't have a Tweener yet.

Curses upon you, Moose, for your gloating ways.:D
 
Definitely. How about some action shots? Gotta give it a chance to work off all that fat.

Just got them today. I stole them from Ethan. He needed a set of Zytel anyways. I got a bag of sterile prototypes, I wanna get some shots of, along with a tweener that almost was. Most of ya'll, probably haven't seen this one yet.

Action shots will be coming, oh, don't you worry about that.

Can anyone see the patina on the blade? In person it looks awesome. Kitchen duty since I got it.

Night before last, it gave me a small nip on the finger.

I swear I think the 16 is the perfect all around knife. I'd lick that thing from tip to lanyard hole :p
 
Well black is slimming, but we like a girl with some curves. Id give her a go round.
 
Moose, you are an ass-hat!

:p

Seriously, they look great. How coarse are they?
They look real nice and grippy!

They are rough cut, CNC just like the regular micarta handles for the large BKT knives. I will probably sand them a little smoother, so as not to rub my hands raw. Since I dont' get as much time behind the knives these days, my hands have gotten a little soft, so, I gotta start toughening them back up for the spring, summer and fall.

They got some grip though, but like all micarta, once you get it all grimy with sweat and dirt, it will get as slick as a minnow's peter. Beware.
