HD 7 conversion by Nathawut ( Pics Heavy)

[Officer's Match]

I can't see any of the pictures.

That's a shame, because they are fantastic. Awesome looking knife.

Just picture a CQC-7 with a full titanium framelock conversion...

nice! I saw him post pics of that on his FB page, he truly does great work. I just sent in a knife to him today for some work, not an Emerson though.

I remember when i saw the pic of your cqc-10 conversion I was so jealous and it was very impressive as well!

 

[grownstar]

Holy hell, that's amazing :thumbup:

 

[Aias]

Wow, very cool. Great conversion.

You bet!^^ I'd like to try the contoured Ti handle next time...like your persian, that thing is Sick! :thumbup:

btw, I wonder why Ernest just didn't just offer a framelock CQC7? Why did he design the HD7?

 

[gooeytek]

Aside from the longer swedge, the HD-7 has a wider blade. I guess to bump it up a notch.

 

[Lycosa]

Thanks, man.^
And bump, it did!

 

[BLK]

I believe mainly due to the cost. I heard it was quite expensive to make the HD version into productions. And I also thought the linerlocks are harder to make than the framelocks.? I'd like to hear from someone with more knowledge in this regard.

Thanks, Ben.
I bet ER shows up but, there was a bad accident today with an Emerson employee. He did not survive a motorcycle crash.
my condolences.

O geez, that sucks....

I have built/ridden/raced a Harley for years and have lost a few friends to crashes over the years.

Just got this one in last Friday and I have to say I am VERY impressed with it! I'm not going to review the 7 as we all familiar with this particular knife I just wanna to share some the photos of this beauty and what a fantastic job that Nath have done. I've been always wanted a HD7 as y'all know this is not a easy knife to find, so long story short my buddy Rolf aka "Lycosa" referred me to Nathawut and after I check out some of his past works I knew his the guy! After few email exchange I sent an 7 over to Thailand for a HD7 conversion. I got it back a little over a month and MY GOD this thing just so perfect now! Full Ti handle with sand blasted finish, built in over-travel prevention disc. The pivot was custom made by Nath with titanium as well as the standoffs. The action is buttery smooth and the blade is dead centered. All the cut outs; chamfering; countersunk; jimpings are perfect. The craftsmanship is top notch and I got nothing but great stuff to say about it! Without further ado here are some photos taken by me, I know they not the best but pls enjoying

That is a nice knife dude. Nath is a Jedi Grandmaster at that stuff! Someday when I can afford it I will get a super commander and a super roadhouse and let him do his stuff.

 

[Lycosa]

Nath- Eric is making a new rear spacer for my HD7. Pix soon!
