The purpose for this thread is to give you a chance to show off you unique or customized Survive! knife.

Hey Hank_612! Good to see you again my friend. Glad you started another Survive! thread.

IN ON ONE! Always wanted to say that. LOL

Custom Flat Jade Ghost G10 scales. Mirage Holstex Custom Sheath. Handmade lanyard from hand made Mammoth Bone beads.

Looks like it's just you and me so far Hank_612 so I'll post another one. GSO 10 with tan and brown G10 handles. Put some strontium aluminate in the epoxy when I laminated the G10 so the edges glow ever so slightly in the dark.

Is that a collaboration with Bark River ?

 

[dtmbinb]

Correct. The prototype blanks were ground by Bark River for Survive.

Awesome sixes. The skull crusher resembles a Koster Muck.

If you check out Guy's youtube channel, you can see some early models being tested: https://www.youtube.com/user/surviveguy/videos?sort=da&flow=grid&view=0

I have no idea how many prototypes were made, but they are certainly a rarity even among Survive! knives. :thumbup:

I do remember some discussion way back about Survive offering some custom shop work.The fit and finish on those prototypes is something that I would be interested in......

I wonder if those S!K's has burnt edges.

Will BRK ever live this down?
I've been totally pleased with my Bravo Necker 2. I still hear people bringing this up. Isn't that like bringing up ZT's "ELMAX HT problems" at this point??

*shrug* Have they changed their practices? Has MS changed his nature? I'm sure KAI worked on their HT protocol. But eitherway, this is a S!K thread, and I doubt smack-talk of other companies is appreciated.

There's just something about ghost jade

Sometimes looks translucent


Sometimes looks opaque (and looks great with black pants)
