Share Images Of Your Demko Knives

Had I known these Cold Steel production Demko patterns were this good, I'd have picked them up a lot sooner...
Heck yeah! The Cold Steel Demko stuff is great! I have a few other CS knives like the Mini Leathernecks and the SRK and they are pretty cool also! Very inexpensive too!
 
Grabbed some aftermarket titanium thumbstuds for my Compact from Patriot Knifemods. Hit 'em with the same 70V I did on my Lynch Northwest clip and threw em on tonight! Pretty happy with the results (although I need some more practice fine tuning my anodizing to match between different surface finishes).

3 x AD20 in 3V and Ti, 2 x liner-less Rockscale on the left, OG on the right (work folder):

Weight comparison, OG vs Rockscale (still greasy from assembly :) ):

Note that the Rockscale scales just fit, a simple assembly (if you don't loose the spring :) ). The OG scales are more involved, you need the right skiff bearings, spacers, etc.

Also, the OEM AD20 weight is (per Demko website):

Weight (G10): 5.1 oz
Weight (Titanium): 6.9 oz

Oh, wow! I didn't realize that Rockscale was finally making scales for the AD20. I've periodically checked their site, always to be disappointed that they were only selling goods for the little Demkos.
It's great that there is an alternative / addition to OG. I hope Rockscale also makes backspacers for the 20, eventually.

Are my eyes, or the angle, deceiving me, or does the Rockscale scales being slightly thinner mean that the pivot screw protrudes slightly on one or both sides?
