Titanium Hexi Scales for Demko AD20 - Liner Removed
The Demko AD20 linerless scales feature a fully recessed lock groove, enhancing comfort when deploying or disengaging the shark lock. Thanks to deep milling, the knife weighs about 6.3oz and measures 0.52 inches thick, making it slightly slimmer than the original.
Note & Installation:
- Not compatible with the AD20S.
- Due to the thinner scales, the pivot pin will be exposed on both sides.
- Longer screws are to be used on the pocket clip side.
- Includes two stainless steel washers that should be placed between each scale and the ball bearing washers, but not between the blade and the ball bearing washers.
- The Pivot Pin should be installed on the show side, which is the left-hand clip mount side, initially.
- The pins have solid and dashed markings on each end. Place the solid ends together on the show side of the scale first.
- Knife and hardware not included.
- All the blasted scales are coated with oil-based PTFE to minimize fingerprints and scratches.
- Made out of grade 5 titanium.
Customer Reviews
Really liking these scales so far on my full size AD20. The extra room for the lock makes a huge difference compared to the factory scales. They feel great in hand. I really like these overall thickness of the knife, but I do wish the pivot was flush. Hopefully someone will make an aftermarket pivot that would be flush, I would definitely recommend these scales.
Ever since I slapped these on my ad20 I can't get it outta my pocket. The feel is amazing in hand and the weight is about the same as with the stock scales. I love the extended notch for disengaging the lock. It makes the upward motion of the lockbar a lot easier and natural feeling. The blasting is done well and consistent throughout. Comfort acoustics and looks are all on point. Only nitpick is that the stop pin rattled a bit but a dab of loctite and it's gone, no big deal. This is my second set of scales from rockscale and I think this is going to be my go to company for aftermarket scales from now on.
Got a new set of full Ti scales for my AD20. New knife who dis! Great upgrade and at a totally reasonable price point. Highly recommend grabbing a set!
Rockscale seems to be one of the only places to think about actually improving the design of the lock (see also: the *only* backspacers available that work with all AD20.5 models)
The deeper lock groove is fantastic. Much easier to use. The only issue is that the stop pin holes are just a little bit larger than the pin, so there was a small rattle when closed. It was easy to compensate for.
I’ll give ya a 4.9 and you can round it up.
I ordered the ad20 scales and when I assembled the knife there was a rattle in the stop pin. I left a 3 star review and described the problem and commended the excellent finish. Within 24 hrs the company emailed me based on review and offered to send a replacement and %15 discount from the original purchase. I received the replacement scales promptly and the fitment was perfect along with the finish. I love theses scales and this company earned a loyal customer for future purchases due to the quality of their product and their outstanding commitment to customer satisfaction. Can't say enough good things!
