Hi Guys,
does anybody know someone who can convert an Alox Farmer into a Bushcrafter by removing the can opener and cap lifter?
cheers.

It's a relatively straight forward mod to do yourself if you have a hammer and access to a drill. You can reuse the pins and with a bit of patience you get good results.

I've done a couple for myself and a friend and if I can manage it anyone can.

You could inquire on mto.org if you don't get any takers here and you don't fancy attempting it yourself. They have a ton of threads with SAK modding advice and its a really friendly and helpful site.

Good luck

The trickiest part will be removing the rivets without drilling into the alox.

Using a centre punch to mark out the centre of the pins is a good tip and you can protect the alox with masking tape.
Use a 2.5mm metal drill bit and take your time and you should be good.
