So, you want to file a step into the spine of the blade to make a wave tab?
I think you'll reconsider when you see how f*cking large the 100 is in your pocket and how difficult it would be to wave. I already have some trouble deploying the Tropen w/the wave w/o hitting my leg w/the tip of the knife. Of course, your knife, your $ and your choice but, if you'll consider a suggestion, try attaching a zip-tie to the Spydiehole (as others have) to use as a wave stop and see how that works for you first.
Finally got it and love it. I did the zip tie thing and it waves great. A small step I think would work as well or better and wouldn't look so ghetto. Now I just need to work up the guts to take a file to my beauty after convincing myself I can do a professional looking job. or just find a pro to do it for me.
Just ordered a new Amalgam for my EDC here in the rough and tumble urban landscape of Kabul, Afghanistan. Looking forward to seeing how well it holds up to everyday use in this environment. If it does half as well as my old Enduras, I'll be a happy camper.
Let me know how it does! I'm curious how the bearings will hold up in a sandy environment. Feel free to post or pm me any other feedback too. =)Just ordered a new Amalgam for my EDC here in the rough and tumble urban landscape of Kabul, Afghanistan.

Good luck w/that.
I'll be interested in reading your "after action" report.
