I'm curious to see who scored the most points. Post your scores and lets see who did the best! Perfect score would be 11 points.

1. Buck vs GEC. (+1 point if you wanted a Buck.)
2. Buck model voting. (+1 point if you voted for a 301.)
3. Blade voting. (+1 point if you chose 2 blade opposite ends, over jack style or 3 blade.)
4. Steel choice. (+1 point if you voted for CPM154 over the other options.)
5. Bolster choice. (+1 point if you voted for nickel silver over brass bolsters.)
6. Blade grind choice. (+1 point if you voted for for full flat grind on both blades, instead of hollow grind on both, or combination of the 2.)
7. Pull choice. (+1 point if you voted for double long pulls, instead of double nail knicks, or a combination.)
8. Handle material choice. (+1 point if you voted for American Elk, over the 100 other options.)
9. Elk style choice. (+1 point if you voted for knobby elk over smooth elk.)
10. Pins choice. (+1 point if you voted for pins over no pins.)
11. Bolster groove choice. (+1 point if you chose no-grooves instead of grooves.)

Lets see the scores!

I scored a 7/11.
 
9/11 for me. I didn't want elk, and of the two elk choices, I really wanted the smooth version, but everything else is absolutely perfect from my perspective and I'm still totally excited and can't wait to get one of these in hand. Props to skblades and Buck for being so accommodating.
 
I dont remember how many I got, i know i missed the steel (wanted s30v) and missed on grooves.

Maybe 9/11....

I was hoping this thread would be a summary of the polls and results for posterity!

Maybe SK can do a post and list all the poll and results by votes and percentages? Nice piece of history in one thread?
 
3/11 for me, but I only voted on three of the polls. Pretty comfortable in just going with the flow this year on this knife.
 
I'm going with 4.5/11 -- by default I selected non-grooved, because there was no option for a slip & box with the grooved.
 
9/11 I hadn't voted elk but the dark knobbly kind pulled me back into the game. :)
 
3/11 for me, but, like 22-rimfire, I only voted in 3 polls (handle material, type of elk, & bolster grooves). I am a newcomer, but am really looking forward to this knife.
 
7/11 This is my first forum knife. I have been too cheap before, but when I found it was going to be a Buck I was in no matter what the cost.
 
I scored 9/11.

I wanted long pull and nick, and I wanted GOOOOOOOOVES BABY! So I didn't get EVERYTHING I wanted like I did in 2015, but it is gonna be pretty close.
 
8/11. If this’d been a test I’d have passed with a 72.
But, it wasn’t about me.
It was about this great group of folks sitting down on the porch and politely deciding on a representation of our cumulative values in cutlery.
I think we did fantastic! And I for one had a lot of fun following the process.
