I am trying to find someone who can help me with modifying knife handles.
I do not think I have the skill to do it (some horror-stories in wood-shop as a teen).
I have 3 things I am thinking of:

1) Putting new, wood scales on to my Spyderco Cat (instead of the G-10). The Cat is a good knife for me in the sub-2.5 category but I would like to dress it up a bit.
2) I am about to order a Spyderco Dice (again, sub 2.5) and would like to put some wood scales on that as well..
3) I would like to modify one of my Spyderco H1 FRN handle and replace it with wood.

Are any- or all of these doable?

Are there any recommendations for folks that can do this? Any idea of the cost?

Thanks,

I believe the Cat and the Dice should be relatively straight forward because they have full liners.

The Salt comes with no liners, so I'm not sure if that is easier or not. It comes with a yellow backspacer, so I'm sure that will have to be replaced to look nice.

There are quite a few good knife scale makers here on the forums, I believe we have a request for services page or something like that where you can post what you are looking for.
