i have a medium cold steel voyager. those who have it know how sweet of a blade it is but also how thick it is.
i was thinking about replacing the grivory and steel liners for solid g10 like the american lawman, or solid 6061 aluminum like the code 4 folders.

wich do you think would be best? the scales need to be about 2.50 mm each to be slim enough .

is that thin of g10 to weak? if so i would think about the kershaw skyline which has very thin g10 scales and i use that knife just as hard as this cold steel will be used, small edc.
i have a code 4 and thats a thin and perfect strength knife. just wondering which would look better or even feel better . thanks everyone !
 
Use g10. It will be as strong as anything and has better aesthetics than aluminum imo.
 
Most people, myself included, hate that cold feeling. When I grab a knife I want it to be warm. Like I'm giving an old friend a hand shake. The g10 is probably cheaper, easier to work, and it has character. Make sure when working it you wear some sort of respiration protection. The shit will bugger up your lungs.
 
also, where is a good place to buy small slabs of g10 or aluminum ? it needs to be about 2.50 mm. no idea where to look
 
well thats true with the cold and warm. i might buy a second voyager and do one in alu and another in g10.
