INFI Pikal

[Ban]

I was determined to get the handles on this little bugger done after getting bite by it a few days ago. Managed to finish drilling the holes for it properly this time around with no incident. Put on some black linen handles and stainless mosaic pins. I left the finish of the handles pretty rough at 100grit because that is my preference for a user. I still need to polish up the edge and make a kydex sheath for it.

Lets have a little contest here. Who can guess what the original knife use to be?????

It looks to me slightly too tall to be a BATAC so I am going to guess an ASH1

Is that your best shot? I am not that darn crazy!!!! LOL!

An AK47? Dat's the ticket.

 

[Keith_H]

very nice, was it an ergo steel heart or something?

 

[papathud]

Let's try it starting out as a thin NICK, but my first guess based on depth of belly was a PBS, but that also is true of the NICK

Alright - second guess -- did it begin life as a SMOG Warden??
Definitely a cool little shape.

Whats the prize for guessing? Free knife customization
