Points, Spines, Shoulders, Tangs, and Tails tend to be the most often used targets

Changing the Point, or adding decoration to the Spine, or for instance taking off the problematic shoulders of a GD would be common examples of Modding the razors.. Perhaps making Kamisori styles out of broken razors, or changing the tang and adding a different one piece style handle..

All these have been done
