MPD x Knafs – Custom Editions
Natural wood. Clean lines. Warm everyday carry feel.
These Black Walnut wood scales for the Knafs Lander 2 combine classic hardwood character with lightweight everyday usability. Precision CNC machined in-house by Mountain Path Design, these scales offer a warm natural appearance while maintaining the slim and ergonomic feel of the Lander 2 platform.
Unlike one-off experimental sets, these are a repeat production item that Mountain Path Design plans to keep available in small batches as inventory allows.
🔷 About These Scales
Material: Black Walnut Hardwood
Fitment: Knafs Lander 2
Finish Options: Raw wood or sealed/finished option available
Machining: CNC machined in-house by Mountain Path Design
Black Walnut is known for its rich brown tones, natural grain patterns, and smooth feel in hand. Each set has its own subtle variations in color and grain, giving every pair a unique appearance.
These scales feature a clean matte-machined finish that highlights the natural wood texture and character.
✋ Contoured for Comfort
These scales are not completely flat.
A subtle contour was machined into the outer surfaces to soften the edges and improve comfort in hand during use while maintaining the slim carry profile of the Lander 2.
⚙️ Finish Options
These scales are available in two options:
• Raw Wood
Ships in the natural machined wood finish for customers who want to apply their own oils, stains, or protective coatings.
• Finished Option (+ additional cost)
Scales are sealed and hand-finished with multiple coats of clear finish to enhance the grain and provide a durable polished protective shell.
Finished scale orders may require up to 2 business days for preparation and shipping.
⚙️ How They’re Made
Each set goes through a hands-on process in my Utah shop:
• Material selected and oriented for best grain appearance
• CNC machined for accurate fit and clean geometry
• Carefully hand-finished and inspected
• Subtle contouring added for improved ergonomics
• Matched as a left/right set
Each set is individually machined and processed in-house.
🔩 Hardware Compatibility
These scales were designed with a shoulder hole height that lands in the middle of the various Lander hardware combinations.
Because screw lengths can vary slightly between different Lander models and hardware revisions, these scales were designed to work with as many combinations as possible.
In the event your existing hardware is slightly too long or too short, replacement hardware kits are available directly from Knafs.
