I love leather so...
I would like a Kabar with a 1/4" thick and straight hilt with the bottom edge finished like the Randalls so that you can place your index finger before the hilt and under the blade without getting it cut. In addition I would extend the tang beyond the butt, round the corners and add a hole for a wrist thong.
As far as the sheath is concerned, I would add a metal scabbard tip just like the one found on the Air Force survival knife to keep that tip in the sheat and out of my thigh. The sheat would also be ambidexterous with two lanyard holes instead of the one. I would also offer the option of having a bare sheath without the globe and anchor crest.
Without reinventing the wheel, I think this would be an excellent knife at an excellent price.

I'd like some G10 scales, a satin finished blade made of D2, a G10 spacer, and perhaps slightly thicker liners (for even more security
).

).No disrespect intended, but I would love to have a SOG S1 Bowie with no Special Forces ingravings or logos on the knife or sheath..
And I would like to modify the bottom of the sheath to accomodate two through hole cylinder type of rivets for extra stength and lanyard holes.. In addition I would also add 4 or 6 lashing holes on the belt loop..

I'd like to see a 4 inch commander, zero ground, tiger striped, that would lock open with the blade canted more forwards, like the "bend" in a lot os Szabo designs. What a flesh eater that'd be... I WANT!
I'd settle for a regular Commander, v-ground edge at least, tiger stripes, that locked in that position.
And another one like that, which was partially serrated, on the forward part of the blade.
CRKT Ryan 7 with G-10 scales, titanium liners, and 440V or VG-10 blade, and a tip up position pocket clip. Spyder-hole too, but the hole left by removing the thumb studs is just perfect anyway, so thats already taken care of.
Ryan KFF with similar modifications as well.
Cold Steel Recon Scout with a satin blade in 1/4" stock, with sharpened "false" edge, steel guard, and black Micarta handle, in same shape as kraton handle, minus checkering.
Spyderco Civillian, except with titanium fram lock handle, and finer ring on the butt, to make it a folder kerambit.
Same with EKI P-SARK (except this with tiger striped blade)
SOG Seal Pup with 154-CM, sharpened false edge, and slightly thinner black Micarta handle, with IWB sheath.
Outdoor Edge Impulse with 440V, dual titanium liners, black micarta scales.
