My collection is increasing it's Carbon footprint again...

I really, really love my Quiet Carry Drift 2. Vanax blade, LCN200 lockbar insert, ceramic detent, titanium scales and hardware... I mean, what's not to love? Well, for one, it's bland as hell. Silver on silver on silver. Bleh. It was boring the hell out of me.

So now it's blue. Problem solved.

Excellent transformation! Pulled up pics of the original model - agree that the silver everything is way too much of the same lol.

I like to cut a few lines across background areas before hogging them out with the rotary tool...helps keep everything even.

....flipped the orientation to see how it looks peeking through the clip, obviously there would be a minimal landing pad for the clip to avoid pocket wear.

 

[WValtakis]

Yeah...I think I like it better the second way, same orientation as the front side

 

[WValtakis]

After sleeping on it (and consulting the customer) we concluded it flowed better with the clip in the reversed orientation....made good progress too

Now you see them... Now you don't! More deep carry clip clip add-ons.
