Still hoping for checkered scales, if possible.

Thanks for the look. I do hope for the Ebony, but there will be no tears if the jigged bone is chosen.

On this knife I think I prefer Sawcut vs Jigged bone. I'm hoping for Ebony covers too, but if bone wins I will vote Sawcut over Jigged. Prefer one of these two Sawcut, Copperhead or Black Cherry. Black Cherry has only been used once before. Make mine with steel pins, liners, and bolsters..if bone wins.

Black Cherry natural light

Will an EO notch be an option? Sorry if already been covered. So many different posts/polls to keep up with.

Much appreciated Mike, Looking forward to all the fun and thanks again.

Hmmmm....
Wondering how Mike will poll the scales.
Will it be a knockout round wood v bone and then wood v other wood or jigging styles or colours?....by far the most complex polls ...cant just have 2 choices.......(mysterious flute music) or can we?

Only the Shadow knows. And Mike.

Been a member for 6-7 years, but this is my first year being a part of this and I honestly had no idea how much fun/stressful a few options could be. I can’t imagine the amount of work being put into this by Mike. I know you can’t read every single post, but if this one catches your eye...thank you very much!

A lot of new variations available for your amusement in the Photoshop thread

 

[cigarrodog]

waverave - Your skill set is a boon to the process. I can see Members liking the star, but I would prefer a simple bar. Hey that rhymes. But the Star is nice, too. So is the checkering.

I love your mock ups but I have to say, I would prefer a different shield. The bar shieldwas done on the #35 bladeforums knife..... the last one was a PPP as well.... would be nice to have something completely unique....

Whoops, didn’t see the others!!! Thanks for making those!

 

[waverave]

Played around with several different shields now and so far the bar shield (or no shield) has the best results.
I really like the jigged bone and checkered ebony examples thus far the best.

My pleasure I'm totally open to any new shields as well I figure when we get to that voting I can make whatever design you all want.

 

[cigarrodog]

I’m not married to the bar, it just looks like it fits. No shield on this configuration would be A Ok. Classy as all get out. That it might have been on another, means little to me. Still I’ll be fine with a different shield. Black checkered ebony with the satin blade is righteous.

 

[JTB_5]

Single star shield matches the single star stamp. Just sayin’

 

[cigarrodog]

Fine. Let’s do it. I’m just excited, because this can turn out great.
