MUSKRAT MAN MOD: SCHRADE+ USA 175

[QTCut5]

OH YEAH! Muskrat Man did a super job on this Schrade mod.

When I got it, it was a Sheepsfoot with yellowish synthetic covers (first 3 pics). Muskrat Man replaced the old synthetic handle with smooth white bone (which he sanded to make it look more like natural bone), added a red spacer (which I feel gives it a touch of understated class), added a lanyard hole and modified the Sheepsfoot blade into a Wharncliffe.

I couldn't be happier with the result; it's exactly what I had envisioned when I bought it: a rather plain jane, "ugly duckling" transformed into a "graceful swan" by the legendary magic touch of muskrat man!

Beautiful Q, Kaleb does nice work, very talented for sure. He has repaired a couple automatic’s for me. That’s a really good looking knife!!

That is outstanding Q!
Kaleb did a nice job on the Wharncliffe mod to the blade! Very pleasing shape to that blade!

Looks great!

What lets the 175 and Camillus 23 down (and ironically, both are usually seen with felt company advertising; often the same companies) are the cheap plastic handles (and the imitation ivory cell/Delrin never ages well, and turns into a nasty yellowed and shrunken mess), but the knife mechanics here truly can let these patterns shine.

Kaleb certainly can work these knives.
Nice looking blade and knife.
I like the spacer.

Beautiful knife and M/M mod ~Q~! That's the kind of knife you can be proud to have with you in your pocket! Kaleb repaired a couple of automatics for me as well, and both came back to me with a very professional fit n' finish. He's a fine craftsman!

Super looking knife to own, QTCut, and great work by Kaleb.

Very impressive mod Muskrat Man. Great commission Q. Love the speckled bones, the lanyard tube, and the modified sheep foot into a Wharn. Excellent features and improvements. A one-of-a-kind custom looking knife now. Smashing piece. Bravo.
