Got an email about a sale online for the 0566 and decided to grab one. I got it Friday and have had it on me all weekend. I really like this knife. The size is perfect, it feels great and was nice and sharp. It's heavier than anything I have but I don't mind. Before this, the heaviest thing I had was a PM2. I think I want to deassist it cause it's a little hard to open sometimes. It was pretty stiff at first but it's getting better the more I flip it. I also want to get a custom scale for it. I saw a few on here from some of the members I like. Probably micarta. Does anyone know if there are any other custom items for it like a lock stabilizer or standoffs? I want to personalize it a bit.

Congrats on the 0566! I've tried several different folders over the years, but the 0566 usually goes in the pocket on the way out the door. To me it's about perfect for an edc knife with the mini grip trailing right behind it. I feel like I'm just wasting money on new knives since I got it because they rarely get carried. I deassisted mine but the detent was too weak to work as a decent manual flipper, but the studs still worked great though if that matters. You can google lock bar stabilizers for it and should be able to find some for it. There are some talented people I've noticed on this forum as well,that I'm sure could do several different things to"make it your own".

You can contact Rival1314 about scales, Keeth is good people! You can also check out Gray precision for a custom LBS. Haven't seen any custom standoffs yet, though.
Rival is a great guy who does great work, but i also highly recommend Matt with bellablades. Good guy and good customer service.
