Build Custom Modular Scales for Your 58mm Swiss Army Knife

The Versa58 Maker Kit gives makers and modders the hardware needed to build custom scales for 58mm Swiss Army Knives. Instead of buying finished scales, you can design and prototype your own custom scale bodies using the same mounting architecture that powers the Versa58 ecosystem.

Built for Swiss Army Knife customization, the kit includes the core hardware used across the Versa58 system. Create your own scale bodies from aluminum, titanium, carbon fiber, 3D-printed polymers, or other materials and attach them to the included mounting plates.

Each kit includes two Versa58 Interface Plates, eight 3.5mm T4 Torx screws, and a T4 Torx screwdriver, giving you the essential hardware required to assemble custom Versa58-compatible scales.

Compatible with 58mm Swiss Army Knives with Cellidor scales.
Not compatible with Alox models.

What’s Included

• 2× Versa58 Interface Plates
• 8× 3.5mm T4 Torx screws
• 1× T4 Torx screwdriver

Designed for Makers and Swiss Army Knife Modding

The Versa58 Maker Kit is intended for builders who want to experiment with SAK customization and custom scale development.

Typical users include:

• Makers building custom Swiss Army Knife scales
• EDC enthusiasts experimenting with Swiss Army Knife modding
• CNC machinists prototyping metal scales
• 3D printing enthusiasts designing experimental scale concepts
• Product designers developing new Versa58-compatible tools

Instead of permanently modifying a knife, the Versa58 architecture allows builders to prototype and iterate while maintaining compatibility with the broader Versa58 modular ecosystem.

Compatibility & Requirements

The Versa58 Maker Kit is designed for 58mm Swiss Army Knives with Cellidor (plastic) scales, including:

Maker Notes

The Versa58 Maker Kit includes the mounting hardware used in Versa58 scales, but does not include finished scales.

Builders create or supply their own scale body and attach it to the Interface Plate using the included Torx screws.

Common approaches for custom scale builds include:

• CNC-machined aluminum or titanium scales
• Carbon fiber custom SAK scales
• 3D-printed polymer prototypes
• Wood, micarta, or composite materials

Once assembled, the custom scale functions like other Versa58 scales and integrates with the broader Versa58 modular system.
