handle change out?

[jharpphoto]

Does anyone know roughly how much it would cost for BUSSE to change the handles out from G-10 to paper handles on an ASH-1? Just a ball park.

Darn! I'd rather G10 over the paper I have now, too bad we can't trade!

Roughly 60-75 Bucks plus shipping and handling

You may do better just working a trade.

I've got a few blades in for rehandling now, and was quoted $95 for putting hand-shaped canvas/solid bolts on a NMSFNO and $65 for the same treatment on a sus scrofa (plus s/h). There's also the wait time to consider: I didn't bother asking because I know they're busy and everything takes time, but the blades were delivered to the shop over a month ago. I don't really have any expectation of seeing them again any time soon, so keep that in mind.

Trade.

Trade works out good for you and the other party.

Breavis has info on one of his threads on fasteners that can be used to reattach the handles.

There is something to be said about factory Busse hand shaping and tube fasteners and solid pins. Just will cost a bit more and will have to wait.

I contacted Busse and was quoted "around $100" for change to Tequila's on an ASH1...;=)
