I just received the APOC Tactical Cutlass, designed by Angus Trim and executed by Dragon King for CAS Iberia.

I like it....it's a nice blade shape, and from what I've heard, a decent steel. It's also a good, simple design and construction.
My question is, how would it lend itself to shortening the handle and putting a basket hilt on it? What issues (balance or otherwise) would someone have doing that? If you kept the job simple, would it be worth it?
It seems to be the sword equivalent of, say, a Cold Steel hawk or machete, in that it's a nice basic canvas on which to do other things. I'm planning to get another one, one to keep as is, another to modify. I haven't used it yet; but from what I've read it's a nice little sword.
Thanks, guys!
