hey all,

I have been waiting for this lightning strike carbon fiber for a while, and it was worth the wait! Not all carbon fiber is created equal, the same goes for LSCF. I have seen some with major issues as far as air pockets, and the wire poking through too much. This LSCF has some nice density to it, and takes a better finish than most I have seen. As a result I have a few really nice pieces to show off....I know a few order brothers that are going to be stalking their mailboxes over the next few days:D

First up, a Kershaw TILT:

Next, a ZT 0560:

I'll be posting a youtube vid shortly going a little more in depth on the differences of a few CF varieties:-)
 
Crazy good work man:thumbup: I'm in love with those Chokwes you did. Definitely drool worthy and then some.
 
Looks awesome man, those came out really great!! Any chance you're looking to expand into the 0350, or any other models?
 
ZT 0100 with LSCF?

I like that TiLT, that looks real good. I dont need to do that to mine but it sure is tempting
 
^^ Yes, I got a bit behind and will be catching up on e-mail and PMs today:-)
 
Absolutely gorgeous work! Impressive as always. I'm still enjoying the blue scales on the R.A.M. I bought from chester22!
 
Rival, I'm really liking your work, I may have to send some business your way, once I decide what knife to customize. Do you make scales for PM2's? Id you don't mind me asking, whereabouts in WI are you located? I'm in the Fox Cities area.
 
^^ S.O. Not crazy, I have some, just havent gotten around to using it yet, still doing customer orders before playtime. I'll try to get something done in it soon so you can see what it looks like.

RJ80, no paramilitaries at this time, i dont have the milling equip needed to nest the liners...Im in rock county (South Central Wis-Compton:-)

Click to expand...

Thanks for the info, I guess I'll have to pick a different knife for you to work your magic on.
 
I had messaged you about scales for both my 0550 and 0560, will definately be changing my carbon fiber choice to this for the 0560 :)
