hello!

I'm still new to the crk family ( currently have a small insingo micsrta, a zaan, and plan to get a large soon!)

And I saw the millit timascus clips floating around
I love the look! But since I come from the hinderer world( steel flame ect) I was wondering what other timascus options there are for crks?
Maybe backspacers, standoffs, Or body screws?
I would LOVE a thumbstud but I imagine that's highly unlikely unless someone started pressing them

Anyways I was just curious what else might be out there

Thanks!
Looking forward to collecting and personalizing many crks to come!
 
I'd be very hesitant about putting anything other than an aftermarket pocket clip on a CRK folder. The main feature of a CRK folder, in my mind, is the tight tolerances. You can take the knife apart and reassemble it 1000 times in one day, and each of those 1000 times, it will go back together exactly the same way. Almost no other knife can do that. Once you start putting in an aftermarket backspacer, body screw, or standoff, the tolerances will likely be off by a few thousands of an inch, and you lose the overall fit and finish of the knife.

My advice would be to stick to another knife brand if you really want to pimp it out, or take an existing factory part, and modify that with a coating or anodization.

Ah very true! I bet double blue lugs and the timascus clip would look stunning
Plus a bead!
I agree completely
Thanks!
