Nice job! I really like the one with micarta handles, nice blue spacers I like the contrast.
 
Having your license = the feeling of freedom.

I'm going to pick up a Hinderer Investigator and a Leatherman soon.

Thanks! I was hoping to create a yellow/blue contrast, I'm glad that you noticed it. I just bought some brass, aluminum, and copper tubes/rods. They will be used to experiment with different looks and styles for the handle. I plan to make some with brass tubes/red liners/black (or really dark) scales, aluminum/blue liners/yellow scales, brass/yellow liners/dark scales, etc.

Nice! I like the micarta one the best. Now, you need your own logo to engrave on them.

I've had it for about a week. Today was the first morning of driving to school. I had to drop my siblings off, so there wasn't any freedom there, but I dropped a friend off after the weight room and drove home by myself.

I'm one step ahead of you! I just haven't added it yet. My "signature" is EB, which are the initials of my first and last name. I run them together and make them look cool. I will wood burn the initials on the right side of the handle near the blade.

Behold:

I don't really mind the curfew and exclusions. I'm not going to be doing any driving past 10 P.M. (or I shouldn't be anyways). The only way that'll happen is if I get a job and I'm good-to-go if my employer signs a note. The 1 non-sibling in the car doesn't bother me either. Having just one can be enough of a distraction. I don't need 2,3,4, etc. I can drive past 10 P.M. as long as It's a school related event too (like this weekends dance).
