while working on the Feb. project, i thought "How great would it be to have my handles (bk2) on an eskabar or bk11." you would have precision, and ergonomics(read "much less hand fatigue"). would anyone else like to see an adapter for the fullsize scales? like a quick plug-n-play type deal.

P.S. my apologies if this has been addressed, (thread of substance #1(hopefully)).
 
I was thinking about this kind of thing the other day, but it was with a different blade and company. I think the way the 11, 13, and 14 are now are great the way they are.
 
i can't comment on those smaller knives...yet. but i am looking forward to finding out. My wife thinks im crazy also, but i'm too afraid to buy an eskabar w/o her permission. I'm still waiting for the opportunity to sneak it past her.

I was really thinking of a simple adapter that you could install with the full-size scales with the standard allen wrench, but having never handled the smaller ones i have no place to speak.
 
As far as i have gone is when i put the home made scales on my bk11 i did extended the handle about half an inch past the normal handle, and it did help a lot on the handling
