Id love to get a carbon fiber handle for the show-side of my Tekcom Unnamed but can't find anyone who makes custom carbon fiber scales. Anyone know where I can find this service?

I've been on the lookout for the perfect Sebenza 21 for a year and this one fit the bill perfectly for me. I'm so glad to have this one. I hope everyone is having a great week!
Dagger from my German Opa, who fought in the First World War. Looking to find out something about this and wanting to replace/fix the hilt.
This fixed blade hunting knife with sheath is made from a single block of sturdy 5cr steel, the fixed blade tactical knife is superbly abrasion-resistant and hard, making it an excellent outdoor survival knife that ensures durability in harsh environments.
I carry my phone in my right pocket and I also carry my keys and knife, but all the knives I have rub harshly on my hand when I remove my keys or my phone from my pocket. (Which I do alot) I tried out a benchmade Osborne carbon fiber and it didn't seem to rub my hand, but I can't justify the price. Any suggestions on a knife that is "soft" without harsh edges? Thanks.

I see posts where people say they have never had an omega spring break and i just don’t understand what my deficiency is here, what i am doing wrong? I have had every axis style lock i have ever owned break.
I have had: -2 940s -Grizzly creek -Adamas -Multiple bugouts with multiple handle scales -Taggedout -Hogue Ritter RSK (only springs that lasted a meaningful amount of time) -And now I’ve had a TRM bulldog break its springs within a few days of getting it.
It doesn’t matter if they are from the manufacturer or after market. I have had them break from a slow thumb role, a middle finger flick, a thumb flick, everything. I have had them break when the pivot is so tight it doesn’t even swing, and so loose that it has play. I use two fingers to close them every time, I rarely try to open or close the knife very fast at all. This has happened to completely clean knives and dirty ones. I flick my knives often but not nearly enough to explain this trend.
I have gone through what has to be dozens of sets of springs now. What am doing wrong? Can I not be trusted with moving parts? Should i only carry back locks? fixed blades? Will those break too? Is this hell?

NKD - Spyderco Lil’ native REC exclusive in 10v. Not sure why I waited/slept on the lil’ native for so long as it’s amazing. Basically like the para3 and dragonfly had a baby. Up until now I was a devote para3 for edc guy but always had a hankering for something a bit more petite. This fits the bill and then some. It’s still breaking in but I can already easily flick/reverse flick it and it’s almost drop shut. Wasn’t sure how I’d feel about the coyote brown scales so I ordered some aftermarket ones but honestly in person they are not bad at all. I’m still going to swap them because I want to try and do the top flipper mod. My only nitpick so far is the thumb hole is a bit sharp on the edges but some fine grit sandpaper should sort that out. I believe these are still in stock and for the price ($15 cheaper than the normal s30v) it’s a no brainer to go with this one unless you just need a more stainless steel although I’m not sure how many are left.
I wonder which switchblade's you guys carry for EDC, and I'd love to know why. For research purposes. (Edit: By switchblades, I don't mean anything automatic. I mean any knife that can close and open in any way or form, whether manual or automatic)
Good afternoon, I am officiating my best friends wedding in December. I have been looking for a "gentlemans" knife to gift him in the lower budget as I would like him to be able to carry it daily. But I'd also like it to look nicer. A couple things I would like it to have are a flipper, and a button lock, preferably without a thumb stud.
Can you all help me out? I can't seem to find anything.
*edit, it seems I am narrowing my selection by having a button lock. What are your favorite "dressier" knives that are flippers?*
*edit 2, I'd like to purchase 2, 1 for me and 1 for him*
*edit 3, What do we think about vosteed?*
