Still 100% onboard for this. This is one of those situations that I really wish I could just order a different blade for a knife, custom shop or whatever you want to call it.
From your sketch, it looks like you could regrind an existing autonomy blade and get close to the same thing as your first drawing, while losing maybe 1/16" to 1/8" of blade and ruining the coating on the spine.

For me, I'd want the full Caribbean belly, though.

I'm going to do that spine slope on the orange one I just got but I don't think I could make a belly the way I want it.

Wait, you just got an orange one? Where? I just looked!
