If you get in touch with the shop and speak to Valerie she can answer you as to your current knife, Pappy. If the knife is sent to shop it will be evaluated and a quote will be sent to you for your approval. If you do(did) this on a regular basis with brand new Randall knives with 5 options already installed...what do you think their answer is going to be? Randall has already had folks try this to "beat the system". On the other hand, on one occasion?? There will be a totally different way of looking at it. Every Randall sent in is handled individually...
Best, Capt. Chris
