TwoSun TS51 anodized

Well, after ruining the nice anodization with etching I decided to give it an orange peel and another blue anodization









First anodization attemt

Sanrenmu LAND 910+ and 9104 Carbon Fiber

So I've decided to put the single front scale that I made for my SRM 910+ onto a SRM 9104
 and made a pair of scales and a pocket clip for that SRM 910+ from carbon fiber

The shiny scales were made from a wheelchair's wheel protector, the bent clip was made from the same orthopedic stiffening material as the 9104's front scale

I'm still looking for a way to give them a more matte finish without getting sanding stripes
Bead blasting would be interesting as acetone won't do anything to them as opposed to the 9104's scales

FURA Kwaiken

I just got back a FURA Kwaiken that I've ordered for a job student.

No need to tell the story, the main point is that the flat blade grind left way too much material giving a heavy and bulky blade.

In the jig



Finished knife with stonewashed blade, handle also stonewashed, the scratches re-anodized to bronze to give it the appearance of brass with green patina



After opening a door with a missing door handle I ruined the tip and decided to regrind it

Sinkevich inspired unlabeled ZT clone

Stock



It's easier for me to anodise it than to catch the effect of these polished scales with a camera






Maybe after a while it will get a green anodizing, we'll see ;)
