You know who would add a butt plate to that knife for you, and they always use a thicker plate than RMK does. Would look awesome if done so smile

David,
The shop will not take on these kinds of modifications, having nothing to do with your artwork. Probably more to do with eating up time that could be spent on getting caught up.

It's only to have more area to engrave that I was asking. With all that is going on in our world that is a decision I may not have to worry about for a while.

Chief,

I agree with Tom. That is a real beauty of a knife.

Cheers,
