GFX Help - Earth - 07-04-2015

I am not good with gfx in any way shape or form and I need the picture of the knife to be worked on. This knife is existing with Schrade known has the SCHF42, but it has a recurve that I hate, I wanted to know if someone can please use photoshop and remove the recurve and pull the belly down.

with recurve:

without recurve:

Using another knife and placing it on the schf42 to give a better example: (Becker BK16):

I would really appreciate it if this can be done.

To make it seamless, I recreated the whole blade instead of just the bottom part.

Schrade is making a newer version of the SCHF42 and they do not like showing the public what it looks like too early they like in a way tease people because many people love Schrade knives due to the affordable prices as well as quality.

I however got to see a very early sketched design on a blade blank from Schrade but I think its going to be a little different.

I wanted to show them this so they can see what it would actually look like with no recurve. The only thing I did after the he successfully did my request was remove the hump on the finger guard to make the blade flush.

That in my opinion looks like a pretty damn good knife for bushcraft and camp tasks.

Schrade makes great knives and I've owned a few but they just seem a bit... incomplete. It's not something I can put my finger on. It's like they are missing character; like they are mass produced in a factory and not handcrafted in a shed somewhere.

Well Schrade is not hand crafted they are produced in a factory in Taiwan and China and possibly other factories. So in a way they are mass produced but its not like they go to different brands there knives are for Schrade and Schrade only.

And you may be thinking China means its awful but its truly not they did have issues on there first batch runs but they fixed that and there quality control is stepped up. But to my understanding Schrade is leaning more towards there Taiwan factory which has been doing there knives for years without problems.

And for the price point on most of there products you can always modify a Schrade to your liking and if you mess up you are not out of a lot of money and can always buy another.

Like Ka-Bar, or Tops, Mora, etc.

If you want absolutely top notch quality hand crafted is the way to go and LT Wright does a spot on job. But hand crafted means higher prices but with that higher price you get the best quality.
