Chokwe in a nice "used" look.
Micarta scale done by Custom Scale Division.
Enjoy!

Nice! I like it! Looks even better than the original. I think spyderco should use this type of micarta on some of their folders

I love it. The Chokwe design always appealed to me, I just never got into the black G10 scale. It didn't seem to match the origin or compliment the frame lock.

Yeah, that is really nice - the black never really appealed to me - should have been Foliage Green or something like your colour IMO :)

That looks great! Definately looks like a rugged user. I think a Military would look good with those type of scales.

That "used" looking micarta fits way better than the original black G10, especially considering the origins of this ethnic design.

I always thought it would have looked a little better with brown g10.It would have looked a little more like wood.

:spyder:NICE! I just purchased a Chokwe last week to give to my son when he is older. I need to upgrade the scales. How was the process? Sal, if Spyderco ever has a sprint run with Gabon Ebony I will buy two!:D

I'm not a big Chokwe fan and almost didn't bother clicking on this, but I'm glad I did. That looks fantastic! One of the best rescales I've seen around here in a while.

How much did it cost? I've been emailing them for a while, but no response as yet.
