Not only SAK scales...

Some random pics of what will be finished in the near future. Of course not including SAK scales ;)

A set of leather sheats for a great TLIM knives.
Custom scales for Spyderco Pingo! Two pairs made of titanium and one made of copper. Those are already finished. Soon I will show you some pictures of the finished scales.
Custom titanium prybars with a clip. It will be my first titanium clips ever! I hope to do clips more often when I learn how to make them. Also Devils-S 'keychains' are being in progress.

Blue Tactical Fishes

Another progress in anodizing titanium with use of voltage. Two tactical fishes - beadblasted, stonewashed and anodized for blue color in 30V. It turned out that not a power supply, but a good quality, clean electrolyte is the most important thing to get good results with anodizing. 
After about two years of tests I think I finally know how to do this! :D

More Vault Openers

Some time ago I have added to my workshop a new 0-120VDC power supply. Finally I should be able to give some fancy colors to my titanium stuff! 
Anyway I have also learned  that it is not easy to get good results on anodizing without some chemistry skills. Here is the result of one of my first successful tests - violet Vault Opener.
And some other pictures just for the record...

Deadclaw finish!

I came up with the idea of new finish for my works made of titanium. My brother has found a perfect name for it. We called it Deadclaw Finish because it looks like the titanium was attacked by a bunch of hungry deadclaws :) Of course itshould be possible to use this finish also for other metals and steel. It suppose to be a practical finish. You don't have to be afraid of the scratches on your scales or tool because I have already made them for you! ;) I have try the finish on Vault Opener and scales for 91mm SAK. Please enjoy the photos

A quick comparison of the Deadclaw Finish and my Badlands Finish on the right.
