Sweet tweener liners!!! Thanks mrn8!!!!!

[RogueBowie]

If mrn8 ever goes orange I recommend contacting him immediately for a set of these! I believe he hasn't been making them for very long but you would not have known by the quality of what I received! Besides being awesome at making liners he is a stand up guy. Thanks again bud, and I'll let you know when to start checking your mailbox

They are just thick enough for the straps on the sheath to still close but that little bit of thickness they add practically makes my 16 feel like a new knife!! The handle went from just a TINY bit too small for me to really love to PERFECT. With the other little tweaks I have made this now feels like a perfect set up for me, I might buy some factory micarta when it comes out but I really am happy with the zytel and how it feels and performs now. You'll notice it is also stripped, the flats are patina'd, I put in SS hardware (another plus is that I can now use my leatherman juice that rides in the pouch to take off the scales, no more allen wrench!), and I also dyed the sheath with dark green RIT dye.

In my tweener pouch is a (matching orange) LM Juice S2 and a ferro rod with no handle so it fits better:

Here is where I keep the ferro rod scraper:

Very nice mods setup looks great.

 

[Chameleonbear]

Very nice... What did he use for the liners? Kydex?

 

[RogueBowie]

My bad, they are G10 liners. They feel really nice!

 

[mrn8]

Excellent, glad you got them before the weekend!

These ones were made from .030" G10.

Nice work Nate, those liners look awesome.

Me too! I have to work all weekend but knowing that these sweet liners are on my knife that I'll be keeping in my car for 'emergency/showing off' purposes will keep a smile on my face! Already planning a day hike soon to put this thing through some proper tasks, up to now it's only done minor backyard bush crafting but with these liners I feel ready for the woods. Thanks again man!

Great work.

Those came out awesome... I've got a BK16 in the shop right now that has black liners and the extra thickness made the handle much more comfortable for me. I'm definitely going to need a set of those and the orange is purrfect

Very cool. I like liners. I think they really add to the overall look of a knife

 

[Mundele]

Very nice. Do you need new hardware with those or do the stock screws work okay? I need a set of those.

 

[mrn8]

These make it necessary to use 5/8" screws.

Oh, and I just went orange....so, if anyone wants some, hit me up. I've got limited materials on hand, but plan to have a good supply next week. I can also bundle them with black or stainless screws for anyone looking for a complete package.

How do i "hit you up"? Might be a dumb question. What is the price for liners?

 

[mrn8]

Pm or email works equally well. Tweener liners will be $10.

 

[Guyon]

Order placed. Thanks.

 

[Chameleonbear]

What colors do you have? I made my liners for my 17, but my 15/16 still need some.

 

[Mundele]

Are these thick enough to mess with the fit of a kydex sheath?

 

[Guyon]

Are these thick enough to mess with the fit of a kydex sheath?

I would think maybe. But maybe not. Depends on how tight the original retention is.
You can always heat up the kydex (slowly! slowly!) with a hair dryer and tweak the handle retention.
