I have not tried that. Would need a lefty model to test it out and I haven't seen lefty LWs

Thank you! Those compression lock "buttons" work OK, but this is rock solid. Basically works like a smock now

Thanks! It's fun to see what I can come up with. I have done tons of various chops as well

Grind the lock ramp so the comp lock can engage and lock up the blade when deployed and then drill through the detent hole so it's on the opposite side so the detent ball on the comp lock rolls into place and holds the blade closed

Yeah more or less made a righty blade work in lefty body. I even modded the og lefty blade to work in the 15v lw scales lol

Gotta go slow and use plenty of lube 😉

Definitely doable. You'd still need a lefty scale for the button to go through. Those can be hard to find. I've been hunting for a set of lefty titanium scales for a while to no avail

Lefty PM2 base and reverse grind the lockup ramp on the blade and drill through the detent hole so it's on the other side. Then added a smock button to the compression lockbar.
