Help with some handle reshaping.

[averageguy]

Hi. I was hoping someone might help me reshape the handles on these knives.
On the first knife the slabs get a little thick towards the rear of the handle before thinning out again, and the edges of the slabs are a little sharp in some areas.
On the second knife the scales are also a little thick. This piece will also have to be bead blasted and properly sharpened.
If anyone would be willing to do this for me I would be very appreciative. Please email if interested.

i don't know if bead blasting is the way to go, the only experience i've had with bead blasting a finished handles resulted in the fine bead (280) making their way between the handle and tang and taking out some of the epoxy

Are those customs?
If so, you ought to get in touch with the maker and see if they can help you out.

If not, what kind of knives are they? Look neat , but I don't recognize them

Yeah, they look like the maker forgot to finish shaping them.We see more and more knives that LOOK good, but the handle is absolutely not user friendly. Hey, grab some files and go to work on them, then sand them and finish 'em yourself. Not a big job at all.
