Well, unless there's a surge of clip voters in the next 24 hours it looks like the spear fans are getting their wish.

Do we know what the next poll will cover?

Charlie has not indicated to me what he wants the next poll to cover. As always, he is the brains behind the operation. I will post it up when he asks me to - and hopefully free of typos this time :o

I agree, I can't wait for the new polls asking about the kind of blaed steal or the matyrielles for the handols. ;) :D
 
The problem with me is I'm an easy guaranteed sale. If they told me it was 6"jigged hambone scaled 1 1/2" 2 1/2 bladed serpentine reverse congress jack dyed purple wit pink bows, I'd buy it anyway.

I'm flexible, outta the 10 Traditional Forum's knives so far 4 of the 10mI own are exactly what I wanted so I'm ok with whatever we come up with but if I had my druthers, I'd go clip with a nice swedge.

I'm right there!:thumbup:
 
Well said! Looking like a spear, are we going to vote for nick vs long pull?

Can we get a drawing of this design? It is never too early to start designing the 2017 BladeForums knife.

I would assume almost everyone would prefer the long pull, but I probably should be assuming anything.

On a nice elongated spear like I would assume an EE HJ would receive, I think the long pull would be the natural choice.

I imagine there might be a fierce debate between matchstrike fans and the "nots", however. :o
 
Looking forward to how this SFO Forum knife unfolds. Is this the main thread or is there another?
 
This is the first voting thread, there will be others:) There are a couple other "starter" threads you can find if you do a quick search:thumbup:
 
Not sure if there will be any more polls? Charlie started this thread: http://www.bladeforums.com/forums/forumdisplay.php/773-Traditional-Folders-and-Fixed-Blades , I believe to see if enough consensus could be attained on other aspects of the forum knife to avoid more polls? I know a lot of you have already posted in the above thread, however, put it here for the information of anyone who may have not been aware of it (it is now back on page 3).
I myself am not a frequent poster, but I browse through the forum at least once a day. I have purchased two each of every forum knife from 2010 to present, whether or not I would have purchased the knife if it was not a forum knife. I enjoy the polls and reading all the comments about how each individual would like to see the knife end up. However, on another forum, of which I am a member, the owner selects the forum knife for the year, has it made and then posts it for sale. I would also be perfectly happy with that arrangement here and would continue to buy the forum knife every year.
