OSO Sweet blade upgrade?

[fishface5]

Hi - wondering if you have already done an upgraded blade steel for the Kershaw OSO Sweet? I love the design & could make new scales myself, but a new blade (in something nice like ZDP, SG2, S90v) is beyond my talents. Thanks for any info!

Yeah I don't have any interest in making blade blanks for production pieces or making blades at all really these days other than the few I do for myself with my Ouparator which is only a handful every couple years at best. Here lately I've done the last three customs using an outside source for the damascus blades much like Hinderer does for his XM18. I designed the blade but since I don't forge I simply contracted out that work after making a blade blank to copy for the service I used.

I'd suggest contacting someone like Reese Weiland and see if he'll do that for you. He has done a few others for folks and is excellent at grinding out a copy blade blank for a folder.
