Y'all know what they look like so I won't bug you with before pics. I did a hidden wave but it still felt lacking since there is no lanyard hole. The last barrel spacer seemed like the best attatchment point but the only problem is the lanyard would catch the blade or get cut. I ended up shortening the blade by approx .6" and now it works great. I firmly believe that this in no way takes away from the effect of this knife as a weapon.

I like it! Hidden wave is pretty slick. Lack of lanyard hole is the only bummer for me on the Yo2. As Michael Janich noted elsewhere, there is room on the last post for thin cord, but it is definitely a close fit. Do you draw into reverse grip?
 
Yes, I'm a right handed reverse grip fighter.

Made a few changes. Trying to keep the original curves of the spine.

That's next on my list. It's a sleeper.....but it hard to find one at discounted price. I may bite a bullet and get one anyhow
 
Honestly i am not convinced. I like the wave feature but the handle shape and blade shape seems off after your mod.
I know you have the tendency to wave every knife you get your hands on, but from a visual standpoint i am not a fan of this mod.
But hey it's your knife and form follows function so have a blast!:)
 
I see what you mean. There is a gap that throws off the smooth transition from blade to handle in the thumb ramp area.
