I really like the Buck 110 automatic conversions, but since my first "real" knife as a kid was a Schrade LB7, I would rather have an auto conversion of that for nostalgic reasons. I have looked all over the web and haven't had any luck finding information, but I find it hard to believe that no one ever made these. Does anyone here know of any LB7 auto conversions?

I have been thinking of doing one myself.
Maybe I should start with a Buck 110 conversion kit, make one & then design the parts needed to do the LB7 conversion.
Just so I can get an idea whether there is a demand for this item or not,
would anyone be interested in one if it was $200 or less?
That is about the price I have seen on the Buck 110 conversions.

I have done some checking today.
No kits available, but there is tooling available to convert production knives to autos.
I am continuing to check into it. I hope to be tooled up for it & be ready to make some later on this year, after my hand heals up from surgery.
