Are the Alpha and Topps CSAR blades interchangeable?

[Doug_86]

I love the handle and scales on the Topps but have no use for a Tanto blade. It would be neat to put a 277 blade in one.

Doug, Somebody did that some years back. (swapped the blade out) and it does work. DM

Here's a topic that's close. Several years back, Where the similarities are mentioned. Then somebody did it. DM

Your welcome. What the Heck, it's been a blowing, rainy, cold day here and we're working to keep 26 baby chicks warm. As our layers have played out. Come June I'll process 20 or so and give you gents an evaluation on a Buck knife. So, I needed something to work at. DM

Thanks David, looking forward to those processing pics

Thanks Doug. I'll be giving it some thought. DM
