There is that - but if I had a knife that was perfect *for me* (I have
smallish hands) and the only thing wrong was the scales, I'd talk to a
local woodworker about what I could get. It shouldn't cost a huge
amount for someone with the tools and the hardwood or micarta scraps
lying around. Band saw, belt sander, some hand-sanding the person could
do themself if they wanted to give it a personal touch.
