Love my Mini Griptilian, what should I get next?

What your asking for is probably the mini bone collector btw. It's literally about a 1/4 inch bigger.
 
Nothing wrong with the Bone Collector folders; they were based on the tried and true Presidio frame. With unique blade and scales, they were nice knives. Many of us took the standard 525/520 blades out of the ribbed T6 frames and swapped them in...no muss or fuss, and got some great G-10 scales in the bargain.
 
Igor is the guy from Russia that apparently has top notch CNC machines and programming. As far as I knew he only did Grips. Wouldnt hurt to inquire about a 710. He does not seem to make backspacers instead he includes outstanding anodized titanium stand offs in colors of your choice. Ive tried getting a hold of Keyman but never heard anything back from him. Would LOVE some high quality flat carbon fiber scales for my M390 710...

Also tried contacting Keyman, no response. Going to get Igor to make a set for my Grip, or should I wait till I find a nice Ritter Mini Grip?

CelticCross I cant seem to find any correspondence from you (email or PM)

sjm1580 I received a email from BladeForums @ 9:30 pm (last night) saying I had received a PM from you.
However, when I go to my inbox @ bladeForums there is no message from you.

that Ritter mini Grip is going to have the same cheap plastic handle as the rest of the standard Grips do. Igor does amazing work from literally any material you want you just have to remember all his work is centered around the finished product being flow through using the stand offs. Some like that some ppl do not. There is one more route you can take for mini Grip scales. The website KnivesShipFree has mini Grip scales for sale that are very very nice. Materials offered by KSF are G10, micarta and linen micarta. Kind of limited on colors but I can at least tell you the linen micarta mini Grip scales they sell are first rate. The linen micarta scales are the most expensive and only offered in two colors maroon(deep dark red) and OD green. I have them both on my two mini Grips. Fit and finish are obviously done on a CNC machine as they are perfect inside and out. Heres a half decent pic of my maroon tanto mini Grip with a mirrored edge.

Sent you an email, thanks for letting me know.
 
I have received an email from one individual only and based upon the name of the emailer I would guess it's sjm1580.

CelticCross74, I would suggest cutting and pasting my email address.
Sometimes people mistake the "l" in my email address for an "I"; or vise versa.

Can you send me your email address, I have a couple questions to ask you?

Thanks!
 
I agree with Dalefuller. 300-1 is a great feel. I also really like the Osborne Axis. It's slightly narrower, with a longer blade.
