sak scales

[byrdhyrder]

Is it possible to change the scales on a sak, and if possible, how do I go about doing it?

On a plastic one yes, but on an metal scaled one no.

Here is a tutorial for plastic ones:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s295mh8_4uU
Just use a thin blade to remove them. Make sure you take out the tweezers and toothpick.

Probably shoulda been more specific earlier. I was thinking of making some wooden scales for my sak recruit.

Very doable byrdhyrder. Here's a thread I started about such "mod". In it you can find links to tutorials that explains how to go about it. Make sure to show us the result - good or bad - so we can all learn as a community!

Its possible, just depends on what you want on them, these are carbon fiber, JR

There's a great number of resources on sosakonline.com. IIRC, one topic specifically about modding it.

For result as inspiration, check out Hanes' post on General subforum. thread is titled 'pics of customized production knives'. He does amazing work!
