Watch it MAN!!! there is a little Gremlin drinking your beer!!! :eek:

From what I hear, you aren't supposed to get them wet...


Those things sometimes invade my house and do the same to me... not cool... ;);)
 
hector81 - I do not know the weight, but I will try to find a sensitive scale to weigh it on.

Bravado - It did change the balance point, but only a little. It is still handle heavy. The balance point is just a little behind the front tube fastener.

I did notice that when grinding, almost no sparks came off of the knife. Must be very little carbon I guess. I took it slow, and will round things out later. More pics will follow when the job is done!

now THAT is a good beer. Was my first ever Dunkel and still one of my favorite even with the big German names. Puppy has good taste :)
 
hmmm... interesting, I liked it before, you made it look good too, better then I had thought, not sure if I liked it before or after...
guess it looks good no matter what :)
 
I like the proportions of that more than the original:thumbup:

The balance would be nice to get an even 50-50...but less handle weight is an improvement.
 
Nice mod.

I also like the grooving pattern on these handles - it shows off variations in the micarta really well, kind of like the old SJ rope pattern.
 
Looks good, I have had a few friends have me grind off the butts of their knives.

That looks really good.
 
david,

that is an awesome mod, not that it did not look good before, now it has your personal touch, and well the chuddy sheath, awesome. he done my killa z sheath and man is it a piece of artwork!!!

hope that i get to meet chuddy soon in person and enjoyed meeting you at blade this year.

both of you are good people!!!
 
Update
As you know, I have been using this knife for all kinds of hunting chores, and it is even more awesome than I first thought, but never one to leave well enough alone, I am at it again!! :eek: :eek: Deer season is coming up on Monday, and maybe I had a beer or two, too many over the Thanksgiving holiday :D. I kept thinking that it needed just one more modification to make it just a little better, so I fired up the power tools!! :D Jerry - forgive me for perhaps I have sinned (too many years in Catholic Schools) , but here is a shi**y cell phone picture of the latest modification. I will give it a workout this deer season, and report. Also, when we get a replacement camera this Christmas (my present to my bride :D ), I will post more and detailed pics. You can really choke up on this baby now! :D

GREAT mod! The little elf choil was one of the biggest turnoffs in the SAR4 for me - you made a much better knife, IMHO.
