Very cool mod! As said, looks really clean, almost like it was meant this way!

Got a 0450 as well, only thing that bothers me is the pivot screw, really wish they put either a 'less generic' like the 0452, or just a smaller one in there.
 
Looks great. I've often thought about sanding down the handle contour near the butt cause it cramps my hand bad.

That might be next for me as well. I should have done it before sending for anodizing. I am planning on polishing/aging the edges of the scales though so maybe it will work out.
 
I don't have a picture personally but it was a stock zt0450.

Edit, added photo to OP instead.


It was a super nice looking blade as is but it was a bit too aggressive looking to carry and use at my office. I'm sure some people will respond to this with their "It's just a knife. Who cares what people think? I carry a fixed blade Busse at my office!" It just wasn't comfortable for me so I changed it. My pictures don't really capture how sheepfooted it is now. They still look pretty sinister compared to how it looks in person.

Thanks guys. Next might be polishing the edges of the scales to give it some contrast and a slight worn patina look. I can't decide.
