Howdy, 'nother newbie; I'm trying to figure out who to send some custom work to, not yet familiar with who's who here where. Any help?

I have one of these (bottom of page)

http://casesales.com/knives/silverscript.htm
Item #5429
Silver Script CopperLock®
Wharncliff blade
4-1/4" closed, 3 ounces

and love the overall size, blade shape and lock mechanism, but would like to make it more useable, um, dare I say..."tactical"?...specifically for one-handed use. To that end, I'd like an ambidextrous thumb-stud installed in the blade and small cut-outs in the handle to accomodate them. Further, I'd like to have the handle material changed to plain G10 or micarta, get the shiny steel bead-blasted (hate fingerprints), no pocket clip, and thumb roughage at the top blade-handle joint.

I know, apples into oranges, but it's a pet project. Got me plenty of time, patience, and funds. Might be fun to do it myself, but the initial startup cost isn't really justifiable at this time, and I'd rather learn on a kit.

Any recommendations or resources would be greatly appreciated, and thanks for your time.

Cheers
 
So, 74 of you have read this so far and nobody can share info. Thanks. Is this in the wrong place or something? Did I break an unwritten rule? C'mon, help a guy out here, willya?
 
I just don't anyone to steer you towards. May be a lot of folks would recommend that you have someone build you what you are looking or rather than modify something so heavily.
Wish I could help, but....

Patience, my new friend, patience. You've asked some pretty specific questions. Someone knows the answer and will be along shortly.

Here's a tip: try a better subject. Most members don't read all threads (I can only think of a few whom I suspect of that. I don't.) So, you really do have to word your subject line to catch people's attention.
 
With all the mods you want done and your statement about "plenty of funds" it sure sounds like you should just buy a different knife or comisson a custom. Get it done just like you want.
