I was just lying around the other day when I had this crazy idea. I was thinking about what a manuverable knife my 560 was and figured why not just put a tanto blade on it. I think that the 560 has just the right heft and other qualties to make a good tactical. I dont have anything that I could edit a picture with to show the concept but I think a blade like the one on the spyderco bob lum without the round hole would work.

I thought that it might also be possible to modify the lock a little so that it could be closed one handed but still have the strength of a lockblade. I thought it might be possible to but a small thumbstud on the side of the lock bar near where it catches on the blade. This idea is a lot more theoretical but I have no major experience with the design and building of knives so let me know if I am totally out of it or not.
