TRM Atom mods

[AriesTheCam]

I been messing with this one for a while. I bought it off a guy with the starry night Micarta.. it has some others but I like these so I did a theme around it. Made the pivot look like the moon as best I could. Polished the scales screws to shine like little stars. Flame oxidized the liners to match the scales as best I could. Only thing I was thinking about changing left is maybe hand rubbing the secondary to a mirror.. or as well as I can mirror 20CV (never tried it on this stuff).

Think I should leave it good enough or do it? I have grit proggression from 140 to 2K available and everything in between. What do y'all think? Also, do any of you know if this stud is pressed or screwed? can I take it off to oxidize too??

The studs are pressed I know that much. My opinion is leave the blade alone, looks great otherwise.

Looks great! I wouldn't mess with the studs personally, too easy to ding them trying to get them out or back in.

The Atom is one of the few designs out there that I actually like. Beautiful blade you have there man.

I appreciate the feedback. I think I'll call it done with these. Any more just risks messing up a good thing at this point.
