Lemons: BK-16 Mod Discussion and Ideas : Completed Photo's

Alright guys, Was up late last night, actually like 4am, getting some work done. Wife didn't get home till almost 10pm and I had the kid so it was a late night mod session.
Was shooting for getting the epoxy on last night but I was so tired by the time everything was ready for that step that I decided to do that today, gonna head out to the garage in a bit.

Here are a few pics of the progress.

If all goes well with the epoxy today, we should be on track to shape and finish this sometime tomorrow!!
 
This thing is gonna be sick. Looking awesome man, really.
 
Thanks Warrior! I hope it turns out like I want it to and not be a flop. haha. If I can shape the handles correctly it will be a will winner.
 
Here's a sneak peak. Been up all night getting her done. Have a few more coats of oil to apply to the scales and then touch up the blade. Deciding on a patina or just leave it or maybe Satin it? Don't know. I'm gong to bed. Enjoy Beckerheads.

Daaaaang! That is some really nice work. I bet the oblong lanyard hole was the hardest part!
 
That is frickin awesome Dex! Really good job. Those scales with those liners look sssooo good... :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:
 
Shaaaaaa-wiiiiing! That looks killer brudda. :thumbup:
 
Thank you Guy's!! Glad you all like it.

It feels so good in the hand. I can't wait to cut up some food with her! I think the balance is almost perfect for use in the kitchen. She is also gonna be a great all around knife.

Tobiism, the lanyard hole part really wasn't to hard. It's the original hole and all I had to do was file out the hole then run rolled up pieces of sandpaper thru it and work it in all different angles. Kind of worked like a sandpaper rope.

She will be done today and I might start on the next knife in this trio. Maybe time for the Lemonade!
 
Can't stop looking at your 16 Dex... Critical mass in my brain.... my head just exploded !!!

 
Thanks Warrior. Means a lot.

Took a big chance on this one and luckily it turned out even better than I could have ever imagined. If someone would have told me a week ago that I would be holding this knife today, I would not have believed it.
 
Dex, you knocked it out of the ballpark with this custom BK16. To be able to turn out this superior quality custom work in a week is incredible. I pay you the highest compliment when I say you are the BK16 King. Congratulations! The pics are first class and do the knife proud.
