Always on the cutting edge of knife design,
, I offer Violet's slightly better looking sister, Mari(gold).
Another TL-29 screwdriver blade mod, I patterned the design after a Eureka jack.
I'm going to put an edge on her and carry her for awhile...

Wow! She is good lookin'! That one literally screams, "I'm a tuff ol' gal, but I'm kinda' purty!"
TL-29's never had it so good!

Very nice Glenn!
I like the contour of the handle, a swell center TL-29!
I also like the way you rounded off the corners of the bolsters.
Excellent mod and a real looker!

Glenn - a unique design! That blade swedge and the grip contours give that knife flair!

Great looking mod, Glenn!
I tried modding a TL-29 into a coke bottle once, but ended up weakening the backspring too much. It still had snap, just not as strong as I would have liked.
You do good work, sir. Love what you've done with all your projects!!

Wow. That is eye-popping. How did you make the handles? It almost looks like a resin . . .
