Ok, so I won a 720 from the very large auction site. My thought is to turn this

into this

The reasons are;
1) I really like the polished aluminum scales on the mini-grip.
2) I'm left handed so when I flip the clip over, the clip is going to cover the Butterfly logo and that's going to look bad, IMO.
3) From what I've seen if you carry this knife the anodizing is going to start coming off anyway.
So am I crazy for wanting to do this? How hard is it going to be to get the anodizing off? I assume some light sanding will take it off.
Has anyone ever done this before?
Also the knife was described as new but with no box.
