Attention 2019 Forum Knife : Poll - Smooth Wood

[Signalprick]

This sounds great....

A large GEC knife...

With a sabre ground blade...

With deep dark black wood....

Looking forward to it on the 97 Allegheney Coke bottle!

Voting ironwood for the forum knife so I can have both!

The forum knife will be large but not overly so. The 97 is gigantic and no where near as cool as what we're collaborating on here. Like comparing a pinto to a classic Mustang.

Sobre gustos no hay nada escrito.

Apuesto a que si tienes un piano, que los objetos punzantes están hechos de Ironwood. Lo único ridículo es su mantenimiento de que Blackwood africano es feo. sólo piensas en el color y no en la visión.

PQC?

After looking at the newest *Bomb Shield* mock-ups, I changed my vote to African Blackwood.

Welcoming all voters to vote for Ironwood. The suspense of the grain is already killing me.

 

[mitch4ging]

Gooooooooo Ironwood!

 

[JTB_5]

Blackwood is surging. Only one vote behind as I post this message. There really is no losing in this battle. Both of these woods are outstanding.

 

[Buzzbait]

Wow is blackwood making a comeback. Smart people, these porch members.

At this point, the Northfield #97s seem far "cooler" than another black handled sleaveboard jack.

What Taylor calls suspense, I call concern or worry.

Will my ironwood be plain or awesome? Will my bolster and shield arrive pre-scuffed?

C'mon Bombers, let's go African Blackwood!

(In any event, this is pretty good fun and I hope everyone is having as good a time as I am. )

Ironwood !

Poor Fredo... if only he had gone with the African Blackwood things may have turned out differently...

Nunca dije que Blackwood es feo. Nunca. Es mas lindo que ebano. El aspecto visual me importa menos que el origen da la madera. African Blackwood esta en peligro del extincion, en acuerdo de tratado internacional y el U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. Lo mismo con Cocobolo.
Por eso peleo la cosa.
Seria un una tristeza que Blade Forums patrocina material asi en peligro de extincion.

Clem Ironwood, Pig farmer (3 1/2)

Mabel, Mabel, those horrible black slabbers are at it again
They ate all my carrots and cabbage
Here they come rootin and snortin and makin such noise its not funny
Festus Bladeforum that moron thinks his black pigs harmless as bunnies

My beautiful Ironwood pigs innocent and pure they have that there chatoyance
They melt all hearts with their cuteness and beauty
Sherrif Makepeace he is so smart he says those blackies are all outlaws
They are black or dirty? ap-ar-ent-ly
He says hose em down get rid of the stink clean up their paws

My handsome Ironwood pigs, we all agree
They are beloved by all - cocobolo pigs I’d mate them with my pigs almost same color
Abner Bloodwood bankrupt an all should come to my farm
With all of his red sows, weed be the biggest pig farm in county
The vote would be big after all the pig counting!

 

[TOM K.]

I changed my vote from Bloodwood to Ironwood because I prefer wood with color and grain character.
(also because the Bloodwood ship has sailed!)
I urge the other Bloodwood voters to do the same!

 

[fishface5]

I'm still in the ironwood camp but seeing the pics of the ebony/AB knives in the wild, I could definitely survive if that ends up being the winner

 

[ShaneInDenver]

I understand. I love my ironwood (maybe I shouldn't have posted pics!), but I'm hoping black wins.

Looks like the poll is starting to swing your way. Either way I think this will be an outstanding knife!
