Just kidding around. Here is a Linen Micarta mod for the spartan. 3/16".
I played with the pivot and I ordered one bigger than I like I think. I also think you might want me to epoxy it or it do it yourself to the handle. But If you agree I will order a smalled diameter washer. But that is up to you Mr. G

Jimping only added on the thumb rest and steel liners removed.
Overall huge weightloss and super comfy.
Sorry for the man hands but I had to do an oil change before I finished the knife.



 
Yes, that is great.

I wish that they would consider doing a premium version like that sometime.
 
That's look really good except for the big washer. I have always wondered what it would look like with a more conservative handle. The Spartan's handle is what has kept me from pulling the trigger. I love the blade shape, and the new stone-wash.
 
Good morning.
Ive got the smaller diameter washer ordered up. It could be inset if they sent me the correct one. We will see. I think after the pivot is shrunk she will look great.
I had to modify the stock back spacer to accept the new handles. But that was not too difficult. It had a bunch of nubs , like ten of them in plastic to fit into the old steel liner.
Those had to be cut off and sanded to fit the threaded steel sleeves for the body screws.
 
Yes, that is great.

I wish that they would consider doing a premium version like that sometime.

Ditto. I'd totally go for a version of the Spartan in XHP with black smooth G10 scales. Not smooth as in untextured, but smooth as in lacking those deep grooves that the plastic scales have. :thumbup:

Fantastic work, Bella! :cool:
