It's no secret that I'm a big fan of Chad's Subcom series...I want to refocus on the Subcom FB as terrific SD tool for someone who wants a small fixed blade that conceals really well and has tremndous cutting power. I recently contacted Potterma cause I was thinking about a mod where I would put some slabs on the handle of this fixed blade. After some PM's with him I started exploring some different options as I didn't like the feel when I put paracord on the handle. I am still thinking about the possibility of letting Potterma do something special in the way of giving me a non-slip handle mod so as if it should ever get slippery from lets say for example blood where it could prevent and not jeapodize my grip on the knife. In the meantime I went to Wal-Mart and did some wrapping with leather Wilson Tennis Wrap to the handle, wrapping from just behind the finger choil back to the lanyard hole...I place extra creating a palm swell in the center of the knife...The result are simply amazing, the control feel and handling has increased so much it's has suprised even me....non-slip security has increased. The knife doesn't budge in the hand and it smoothed out the edges and cushion them around the handle for a real comfy fit. Comma Cuts seem to be more effective as well as slashing ability has been enhanced....Doc
