Yes, I know MVA has them, but hoping somebody has an original for less money laying around gathering dust. I have a SST lower tang for now, and would like to convert it to DST.

At times we must dry the tears and pay the price or go home empty handed. Careful bending would seem like a workable solution.

Shh!  Don’t tell anyone about that. I could use a straight grip DST tang.

I know just what you mean. I often feel that way when I have something in mind that's for sale somewhere or in an upcoming auction and someone comes along and has to announce it to the whole world just in case anyone wasn't aware of it and my chances of winning go out the window.

There are 33 watchers and 19 bids so I think the word got out.
