How to ADD rock texture to G10 knife handle Scales

[@greatjobby]

The boiled linseed oil trick is amazing. Im using it on all my g10 scales and it looks so much better now! Thanks

[@gentrycustomknives8008]

Glad the video helped!!

[@kennethrutledge9222]

Dude!! That is amazing!! Thanks so much for the tip partner!! You must have been busy lately cause we haven’t seem much of you and the knives !! Glad you’re back

[@gentrycustomknives8008]

Thank you! Yea I’ve been busy building the new house and shop! Hopefully I’ll have it finished up here in a couple weeks and I can pump out some new videos!

The gun blue is what I'll take from this video

I never thought of putting boiled linseed oil on g10! I’ve used it on old dried out guitar fretboards and it brings out the natural beauty of the wood while hydrating it. It’s also a hard drying oil and a bit of a sealer. I’ve used it to soak into a wood work bench countertop. I’ve used it on hammer handles as well as metal tools and knife blades. Very cool to see someone else using linseed oil, and on something I haven’t used it for yet.

[@gentrycustomknives8008]

Yes it’s good stuff!!

[@jeremywest5433]

I appreciated this a lot, and learned a couple tricks as well. I hadn't thought of cold blue to match an etched finish, I'm going to try that on my next knife. I think the rock texture on the g10 is a nice touch. Thanks and keep up the great work on the knives and videos.

[@gentrycustomknives8008]

Awesome to hear! Really appreciate you checking out the videos!

[@minoz55]

Your videos are a joy to watch - great content, great style.

[@gentrycustomknives8008]

Thank you!

[@CatHound]

Nice job and good coverage. Straight to the point.

[@gentrycustomknives8008]

Thanks for watching!

[@kirksholars8232]

I like your vids. Keep in mind though that a half inch small wheel spins like twenty times faster than your 5 inch drive wheel so that bearing is screaming. I think I normally run those at about ten percent speed. Cool looking handle.

[@gentrycustomknives8008]

Thanks for the info!

[@DBCstm]

You “Rock”! Thank you!

[@robertgarrett7007]

I like your rock design. Very impressive.

[@gentrycustomknives8008]

Thank you!

[@johnjude2685]

Small diameter wheel are turning faster than the larger size. YEAH! probably should expect problems Great video and volume audio fine and great content thanks for coaching me

[@gentrycustomknives8008]

Thanks for watching!

[@jcharles-12]

Wow thats really good work

[@rongor6236]

All of your knives look great! How can you expect me to decide on just the first one to get -- with the all the different profiles and different sizes. You, sir, are kinda making it super hard to pick... This Trekker-T with the orange g-10 handles with the rock texture is gorgeous. And I am excited to see what the Trekker-H with the green handles are going to look like. Then there are the Clevers... Oh, and don't get me started on the Kydex sheaths you provide with them. It is above and beyond. I am just torn... Not to mention the videos you are putting out. Keep it up, please?!?!

[@gentrycustomknives8008]

I really appreciate that! Send me a message over on Instagram once you decide one which model you want and I’ll get it done for you!

Hit it on a scotch bright belt to knock those high spots of works like a charm

[@maxherzog3208]

[@the_rattlesnake_dude7172]

Nice work bud

[@gentrycustomknives8008]

Thanks!

[@trevorbeckett3248]

Trever beckett from Zimbabwe thanks for your infomative vidio,could you not run it over a buffing wheel to bring up a permanent shine.

[@gentrycustomknives8008]

At that low of grit probably not

[@drewhawkins6302]

I'm a little confused broski. Why boiled linseed oil? I get it makes it shiny for a time but g10 is non porous and doesn't absorb the oil. Thanks in advance. Love your vids

[@gentrycustomknives8008]

It definitely soaks in and brings out the color

[@Yousoundvaxxed]

Needed this video, thanks!

[@gentrycustomknives8008]

[@vincentcocuzza8679]

Hello awesome video man. I just got a 2x72 and small wheel set up and this video helped me figure out how to do a rock pattern finish so thank you for these videos! One question though, where do you get your lanyard tubes at for handle? I’ve been looking but can’t seem to find the right ones for some reason. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Keep up the great knives and videos

[@gentrycustomknives8008]

Maker material supply has those! 👊

[@SharpPokeyThings]

[@MrWeb49]

[@gentrycustomknives8008]

I don’t unfortunately

[@stahlhart8998]

Good video. As usual

[@gentrycustomknives8008]

Thanks for checking it out!

[@evanwright161]

does that qtip trick work with ferric chloride? cool stuff thanks for the vid

[@gentrycustomknives8008]

It definitely does👍👍

[@bdcfu]

Do you ever use conditioning belts or polishing belts/wheels to put a finish on your handles?

[@gentrycustomknives8008]

I do not

[@trainwon5699]

A home run that looks sweet! Can you use that oil on micarta? Thanks

[@gentrycustomknives8008]

Yes I do ! Thanks for watching!

[@shortbusdog]

So the bluing stuff doesn’t do anything to the g10?

[@gentrycustomknives8008]

No

[@Ghost225100]

What gun Blu are you using?
