Interchangeable backspacer assembly for a knife

A knife handle comprising a pair of handle side members defining a distal end and a blade end, and an interchangeable backspacer assembly, the interchangeable backspacer assembly comprising;

• a backspacer;
• a first standoff;
• a second standoff;
• and a locking member,
• the first standoff and the second standoff mounted to the knife handle between the pair of handle side members to space the pair of handle side members apart at the handle distal end and define an open handle interior between the pair of handle side members at the handle distal end for receiving the backspacer therein,
• the backspacer removably supported between the first standoff and the second standoff within the open handle interior independent of the pair of side members, the backspacer having an elongated first slot defined therein for restrictively receiving the first standoff when the backspacer is seated within the open handle interior and an elongated second slot defined therein for restrictively receiving the second standoff when the backspacer is seated within the open handle interior,
• the locking member operatively connected to the backspacer to engage one of the first standoff and second standoff when the backspacer is seated within the open handle interior to hold the backspacer within the open handle interior.
