... what do you do if you have a Busse that you want modified? Limited runs, limited editions, discontinued combat grades, customs from knife shows, so on... and there are no blanks left for the custom shop to use, or you just can't afford a custom shop piece.
The simple answer is that you go get it modified, but I'm having a tough time coping with that. I have a CABS that I'd love to get a different handle and blade finish on eventually... but it's marked 1 of 5.
I know it's mine, and I own it, but how do you justify erasing a piece of history like that from existence? Ridding the world of something that possibly might be the last of its kind?
Anyone ever had to go through this?
