Knife blank probing

Knife blank probing

I bought this Spyderco Mule Knife blank with the intention of making some custom scales for it. I probed the entire perimeter of the knife in case I want to make a machined sheath or a positive for forming a Kydex sheath. I wrote a fairly crude probing routine and let it run while I did some other work. I also found the locations and diameters of the holes in the knife blank for rivets or fasteners.
