The handle and sheath would need changing and - it is Stainless!
No not for me unless it is sub £20....

Looks like it would be a great knife for use on the water. The closed sheath and stainless steel would make it appealing for that purpose. I'm hoping they'll offer a carbon version though and will probably hold off until they do.
Is it just me, or does the exposed tang look like it is wider than the middle of the handle?

What's the tang on the 2000?
I don't like the handle this the steel tbh, but the sheath is fine! £20 and I'd buy it.

The tang is just over half the handle length. I've been using one for years and it has grown on me. I like the blade width and grind.
That's a nice looking sheath. I'm no good at attaching pictures, but Dave Canterbury has some pictures of the just the knife blank without the handle and it doesn't look at all suitable for rehandling. I'd say a bit of grinding would have to be done and you'd end up with a wide stick tang, rather than a full tang.
I see Johnnyboy has provided a pic while I was typing. Thanks.

That, and the general shape. It's too narrow to just put scales on, and would need a bit of grinding to handle as a stick tang. I guess you could route out the shape of the tang in two separate scales and attach them, but with that much work involved there are better options out there to rehandle.
