Classic blade in regular handle?

[cosgrove]

I've had my first sebenza for about a week now. It's a large regular. Now, of course, I want another one.

I like the regular handles, but I really want the classic blade shape. Anyone know if it's possible to order one that way? If not, (and here's a great excuse to get _two_ more) can I put a classic blade in a regular handle myself (and the other way 'round)?

Each Sebenza blade is made to fits its specific handle. So while they may all look the same to the naked eye, in reality there are very slight differences in sizes for both blades and handles.

I believe there is thread about this somewhere, but it may have been lost with the switchover in software earlier this year. I have asked Anne about this and apparently, in addition to what BOK said, there are differences between the classic and regular models that do not facilitate this combination of blade and handle.

A solution is to have a "SWEDGE" put on the regular blade. This will make it a bit more like a clip point.

Cost is $21.00 for the Swedge plus some shipping.

Take care,
Neil

Thanks, everyone. I totally missed the swedge option.
