Custom 11" AGA Wasp Bodies

Post by thom »

Everyone seems to like the thinner Wasp's. Here are some pictures. I wasn't crazy about the stock scales, but I loved the knives. Probably my favorite 11" picklocks. Love the feel of the thicker handle, the flatguards and thin blade. So I thought they would be even better with nicer scales. I had then done by AIK. They did the engraved spine, the file work on the liners and new scales. I had one in black horn and the other in dark horn. Later I had the dark horn rescaled in French Tip by PLP. The last pictures were of the first rescale that now has French Tip.

Thank you guys for bringing AIK to my attention. I ordered a dolled up Leveretto that they had listed.
Can't wait until it arrives along with a stag scaled Diana.

Just what I needed, another form of blade addiction.... :roll: 8)

Be still my heart! That file work is extremely nice. Those are what I would categorize as "Precious Gems".
