Half Handle Freestyle, Modded blade
on: April 24, 2020, 02:43:00 PM
Actually I think I have seen this somewhere before... :think:

My take on a half Freestyle. Bought it cheap as the other handle's springs are broken. Pliers went to repair a Skeletool.

Added some tools at the back. Scissor and a large screw driver as a light prying too. No alteration to the tools needed, they become a slip joint implements due to the springs.

And of course it wouldn't be my mod if I didn't do something to the blade..  :D :D

I had always prefered smaller, utility kind of blades. Wharncliffe are my favourites! This was a standard half serrated blade. I had almost wanted to do a full serration again as I kinda dislike the idea of 2 different kind of sharpening methods on a single blade. I am pretty good at sharpening serrations now.. Those serrations cut better than the plain edge... :facepalm:


Some light tools. Lanyard loop is more of a space filler...


No alteration to the tools needed. I can make them go in deeper into the handle with some grinding but I dun see it as a problem now. Not sure how long this will stay, so keeping them as stock now.


The added implements all points to the correct direction when they are deployed.

I hope LM product development sees this and throws you some cash for the design. Well executed!

The KB was just the top layer of a skeletool/freestyle. They just used that template and screwed them on the new aluminium handle..

I did this with a skeletool and loved it! I was shocked to find that the springs worked with internal tools! I have to try that with a blade mod like you did.
