This is my most used and worn knife for a few years since I bought it.

Ti ano'd thumb disc. Swapped in the Emerson clip. Big Chris regrind by previous owner (one of the reasons I bought this knife). Wave removed, phew. I almost completely smoothed out the clip side, rounded edges, and shortened screws to fit the slightly thinner G10.

Cuts.. slices, and dices like a dream.

Any other "most carried favorites" that happen to be an Emerson knife? Show and tell!
 
Seriously nice work man. I just might copy a page out of that book. Is it just my eyes, or has the blade guard been lightly bobbed too?
 
For once, you delivered. :D
SO nice, buddy!!
I have an A-100 incoming but I would seriously consider one of these as my next Emerson.
Thanks for the great pix, too!

Thanks guys. These pics are under saturated due to resizing and no touch ups... sorry.

The guard was only slightly rounded, not shortened.
 
There are times that I want to sell all my folders and just keep the Emersons but... I'm still thinking on this one.
 
That is very nice looking, very clean looking mods. I've sanded the scales on some of the recent ones I have got, not as much as yours but enough to keep my pockets safe.
This 12 has been my most carried since I got it. It is marked 06 but I got it in 14 directly from EKI. It is a large knife but light and thin so really easy to carry.
The coating has shined up a bit and has a few small scratches near the edge but has held up really well. Only thing I did was swap the pocket clip.

Not with this one. The only place this knife will be sent is to EKI if it needs to be worked on. Thought the lock would need to be adjusted since it was almost touching the G10 but it hasn't moved after countless openings.

Understood!^
I bought an HD7 with the lock bar all the way over and EKI adjusted it just-right.
