I went to federal yesterday and now BOMBS AWAY!!!!

 

Just finished up with the propeller crew and joined up with the bombardiers. Let's get this mission off the ground!

 

I really like the bomb shield. It would look great on some African black wood or Ironwood...I may swing that way....I have been with the Orleans shield from the get go....

 

It took when I went at it that way thanks.

Not being clear on forums is one of my super powers.

I came into the thread, I think last night, and voted. This morning, I didn’t see the poll results, and had a “cast your vote” and a “view results” button, not a change your vote. Thinking I had gotten distracted, and not voted, I voted again, identically.

Same scenario this evening. Realizing I had voted, and it didn’t count, I voted no shield only, and it took. Then edited to include a shield choice.

I don’t want to go casting around casting accusations of conspiracy to suppress the no shield vote, definitely open to other explanations, such as a software glitch?

Hopefully I’m the only one experiencing this, but I would think no shield would be showing a little better with ironwood leading the other poll, and they can’t put a brushed finish on a shield you don’t have.

 

I was with banner to start (and still probably like it the most), and was good with Orleans.

However, I'm not so keen on the reversed Orleans, and really don't want to chance it in a poll.

Regular Orleans, banner, and bomb are so close in their aesthetics (to me) that any of them winning will not bother me at all.

 

Come on Taylor, it's a fun crowd over here in the bomber camp

 

Its fixing to be a bomb (shielded) knife I am hoping. Come on in, the waters warm!

 

Yeah that's how I feel about the whole thing too.

 

@waverave if, and only if, you have the time, at your convienence, could you make one of your illustrations of this knife in Cocobolo and a bowtie shield, just so we could see what might have been??

Thank you so much for all your help and time you've put into your renderings buddy!

 

I'm not into the bomb. I can't get this outta my head:

 

@Ajd3530

 

Sweet Jesus that is gorgeous.. I think I'm going to go cry.

 

I wonder is it too late for a write-in?

 

^^^^^^^
Actually, how about a B.F. Shield, on African Blackwood or Ironwood ?
It would definitely be a club knife.
I would be on board with either wood at this point.

 

I’m very excited about having a knife with a bomb shield. I really hope it wins.

 

Yeeea!

 

Now THAT is what I wanted from the beginning!!!
But for a bare end and brass pins I still vote ironwood.

 

Is there a BF shield? There should be a Porch shield I think it would be pretty neat to have our own.
