I saw the Crawford Kasper with Spyderhole on Arizona's website a few weeks ago and thought I would really like to have one. Rather than hacking up my custom Crawford, I went out and bought a CRKT Kasper (hope Sal isn't looking) and cut a big Spyderhole in the blade. I just finished it so I thought I would post some pics of it. I am thinking of putting a different set of handles on it (maybe carbon fiber). It took me about 2 hours to do all this work. I used a die grinder (automotive tool) and some sandpaper (180 grit all the way to 1200). This thing is slick and opens very quickly now. I topped it off by adding a Spyderco pocket clip which I had to slightly modify to fit the CRKT. I really like this knife. I wish Spyderco had gotten up with Crawford before CRKT. Check out these pics:

And for your information, Sal replied to someones post a while back and they had asked him if they could use the hole in a knife they had. His reply was only if it wasn't for resale. Well fellows, this one is not for sell. Let me know what you think.

Very nice indeed...
The way I see it, all folders should have holes in their blades!

I liked this idea so much I got me a Kasper and had Jake Evans do the hole for me....

Hope to get it soon - so I can post my impression...

This looks like a winning combination...

 
Hehehehehehe! Little small, but perfectly formed. Now if only it was made from a real steel like BG-42 or M2 or CPM 440v or...
