I have had no response from Wiggitty about his scrapper numbered Le so I think I will start planning my modification of the knife to make it mine. Which of the suggestions do people like and what, if any, have I not thought off but should consider?

How to modify the blade?

I think the saber grind is just fine, but if you wanted to knock it back I guess you could. I don't think a full flat is necessary, as the S5 is already so light for its size, and the balance is good.



I'm personally a fan of the thumb ramp, so I'd keep it. I might consider rounding out the choil more though. Not a big fan of the square choils.

I'd leave it just the way it is...Maybe put a convex edge on it but that's all I would do. It's a personal preference though. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

I would leave an LE the same. But- I am taking one of my CGs and knocking off the ramp- stripping and " might" be changing the grind. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

Take my idea (remove the thumbramp), MM's idea (round out the choil), and KS's idea (put a convex edge on it) and you've the the three best mods you can make to an S5.
