Just finished these up yesterday! Enhanced the swedge on the BK7 to be more of a bowie type configuration, removed jimping to make flat, added some finger choils on that and the BK2, and the skull crusher was added to the 7 - sweetness =) then the final stonewash finish. They had a weird aftermarket paint job on them so I just blasted and stonewashed - turned out pretty nice and razor sharp! One thing to note is that the skull crusher mod can't be done w/ the stock handles because you have to remove handle material and the stock ones are hollow somewhat. Enjoy :D

Is it weird that out of all the sweet modifications you've done here, I find that choil the most sexy?
 
beautiful clip on that 7! Question: why not make the scales on the 2 flush with the choil? I don't think you would reach the hollow area, looks like a couple mm.

Thanks guys. I would have, and you are probably right, but it would have cut it close and I didn't want to replace hehe. Plus my customer was fine w/ the way it turned out =)
 
Awesome work. The skull crusher looks deadly, hope it doesn't poke your customer in the ribs while carrying!
 
Very nice work, I like the choils and the swedge!

Is this work you typically do for people or was this just a special case?

Yup sure do, check my sig. I really like the bk2 mod, fits the hand nicely when you choke up!
 
Wow, that skullcrusher (or is it a skullpiecer) looks good. :thumbup:

I've put the Camillus style 'point' on a KaBar 5 and 10 but yours have me thinking of trying a mini version.
 
That is superb. The skullcrusher mod is fierce. Very well executed well done 👍🏻
 
That bk2 looks sweet but my brain hurts after 10 1/2 hrs of work so I'm having trouble piecing the pics together. Do you have a full Blade shot? Thanks for sharing! Very nice edges there!
 
A nice Mod. I'm not a fan of the choil, but appreciate your beautiful execution in the work!
 
Those look pretty cool. I did the skull crusher on my 7, but also made it a beer opener....since I do a LOT more of that. The new scales on the 7 look pretty nice - custom made or stock G-10 modified?

no sorry!

I didn't make the scales... they came to me already on it. Yeah I did the beer can opener on this one, kinda a dual purpose thing I guess... getting ready to do another soon too
