Does anyone know who does blade alteration on here or otherwise? Say you wanted a recurve flattened out into the plain of the rest of the edge, or maybe grind the spine down to make a thinner blade surface. I know STR does clip work and frame-lock conversion but i don't think he does this kind of thing. Thanks for any and all input.

Tom Krein does this sort of thing. I'm not sure what his turn-around time is right now, though, he's pretty much always busy. I'de contact STR first.
