Larry,

Scott has a great idea to have Behring Made do a re-handle on your knife. It certainly will turn out great whatever you decide "but" I have an offer that might interest you. Lets turn a couple of wrongs into a right. Grant Cunningham at BMK has a piece of my Fossil Walrus Ivory that I'll donate should you wish to turn this into a showstopper. The handle will need to be trimmed down some to fit this blade, let them work out the details. You have other options to deal with them as well.
Grant won't be back until early next week from the Oregon show. You are free to contact him if you want to proceed. It would keep your cost down and you won't be disappointed. This is totally your call and under no obligation. Best wishes.
