- In the last video I made about the Hogue Deka I said it wouldn't be worth upgrading the scales, but you all convinced me to give them a try. Seeing as I've never bought from OG before I thought I'd try them for myself. So here is a video changing out the scales. Skip to about minute 21 if you want to see the finished product and my impressions.

Hogue Deka Original Goat Scales

I recently got the Deka 2 Clip Point in Magnacut and added the OG black scales with a black cherry floating backspacer. I didn’t completely break down the knife as you did……simply took the scales off and of course the pivot. One thought I’d like to share…….in doing it like this I used the Benchmade Axis tool that I bought on-line to align the pivot properly. Adding the scales and backspacer took the overall weight to 3.0 ounces and I absolutely love the look and feel of the Deka 2 much better than the stock version.
Yeah! It really takes it to the next level. Thanks for the comment. I really like the description of your build. Unfortunately we can't share pictures on TH-cam, but maybe you could email me a picture because I'm really curious how it turned out. That's sharpends4279 @gmail if you get the chance
I highly rec the benchmade alignment tool on etsy. Bought one made of steel and it makes working on axis lock knives effortless.
Very nice! I just ordered the same knife and am considering the Sedona Red OG scales.
Sweet!!! I got the backspacer’s for both versions of my Deka’s!! I got the black scales. Yours looks really good though!!
I know im 3 month late to the party...
But did u purposely switch the pivot around so its flat on the show side??
It's the way it made sense to put it back together. I probably didn't even notice the screw head on the show side but put it back together this way because that's what makes sense to me, lol. I missed an opportunity to comment and notice that. Nice catch! Actually carrying this knife today!
@@sharpends4279 i actually got the OG scales on my deka a few weeks ago, its now my go to knife (they make the knife so much better)
Thanks for posting the video. I'm looking to get those scales for my Deka but I don't see any "buff coated" 2:09 options. What did you select to get that sweet matte coating?
The coating I have? That's "no coating" or none. It saved me a few dollars and I didn't want to spend too much money so that's what I got.
@@sharpends4279 Ah, thanks for letting me know. I just went ahead & ordered the stone grey ceramic coated scales. I hope the cera coat turns out okay.
