Glennbad Mods

Post by r redden »

About 3 years ago I had Glennbad put some stag covers on my first knife a Colonial Barlow my grandfather gave me when I was 10 around 50 years ago for helping him with some fencing, I was very impressed with his work and had him to do six more in stag and thought I'd show them off here. If you have knife mods show them off here I'd sure like to see them and I bet a lot of other folks would like to as well

I've had a few knives wonderfully done by Glenn, but my favorite is this camillus 70 that he put ebony on. The knife is unused with factory edge, with this beautiful dark ebony and original shield it is one of my favorite knives in my collection. It looks so perfect I'm just thrilled every time I look at it.

Here's another camillus that Glenn did for me, this one is a 67 stockman. These are the pictures he took of it since I have never photographed it. Note the fancy shield he put on it :D

Still bragging on this Glennbad 29 mod I got from Wade. Glennbad said it was from around 2012 and that he had improved since then but Wow I don't see much room for improvment. What a solid and pretty knife.

My first Glennbad mod--which I've had for about 5 years or so.

I asked Glenn to replace the yellow synthetic handle on this Case Copperlock (549WL CV) with Gnarly Stag, and he delivered in spades!

I never get tired of chicken eyeing and coon fingering this beauty.

Thanks, Floyd. That's definitely one of the "thrills" of getting a custom mod...one-of-a-kind exclusivity. :mrgreen:

Here's my second Glennbad mod, which I've had for about 4 years--although it seems like I've had it forever since it's the one that really got me addicted to ivory.

This Case Copperlock began life wearing jigged purple haze bone covers. Glenn dressed it up a couple notches with some creamy Elephant Ivory sourced by Ivoryman.

Now, I think this knife is "presentation grade" and fit for exhibition. ::mdm:: ::nod::

I had a Case 21051LSSP that I had Glenn recover in stag. He also did away with the lanyard hole and rounded the profile of the butt end. Before and after.
