Apparently nobody customizes Byrds. They're quite nice knives though :(

Naw, I use em as-is. Nothing much I feel compelled to alter. I use, sharpen, use again,,,,

Though, if I could find a Ti Meadowlark, I'd snag it and swap the scales onto a Hawkbill.

Are the scales the same footprint?

I did this popular blade swap with the Ti version:

I've toyed with the idea of making some custom scales but that's as far as I've gotten. So many other projects ahead of it.

Thanks, I have the Robin Ti and have thought about transplanting a wharnie blade into it as well. Yes, I love wharnies.
