Now that I finally have the Hinderer Fatty I want, I need to decide what I want to do to it. I got a green/black scale, and my original thought was that i'd add a full set of bronze hardware... But I also like the idea of getting a full textured ti scale and leaving the hardware alone. I also haven't ruled out the idea of getting a new textured CF scale, or the possibility of having a totally custom scale made (pic down below of one of ShephardCC's badass scales). I guess I'd just like some input / color combination ideas. Once I do it, I want to permenantly leave the knife that way. So whatever I decide, it'll be forever. I added some pics below of how the knife looks currently (sorry my hands are so gross). Any ideas, pics, or comments are appreciated! :)




I thought this scale would look amazing!

 
Many options for an XM. I personally like to anodize the locksides, also the anodized hardware is good...just bronze or brass standoffs would look really nice on that, make it stand out.

If you're looking more for just a scale and leave the hardware, I would look at MidnightSun's work, he's on this forum, or Spketch custom scales.
 
I'll definitely check those out! Thanks! Im very attracted to bronze. Would be nice to get a custom scale and do something with the hardware too
 
Yeah bronze would go really well and still leave room for a custom scale. I put bronze hardware on my blue-g10 bowie and it looks great. MidnightSun in particular has some bronze Ti and brass scales that you should check out. He has some that already have images, etc. on them but he also takes custom images he said.
