Okay, here is my latest attempt, and this one is closer to scale than the Damascus comparison was. This is a plain-edge BT version, which hopefully gives us a good idea of what a production version might look like.

The more I experiment with the Baby Commander graphics, the more I want it to become a reality. I think it would sell like crazy. Hopefully Derek will like our combined efforts and let Ernie know that we're excited about the possibility of the Baby Commander being produced someday.
Once again, please realize that the entire idea here was to design a Baby Commander that would be suitable (legal) for airline travel (thus the CommandAir name), and also to create a defensive blade for carry in jurisdictions which require a sub-3" blade, and finally a blade for those who just prefer smaller blades for daily carry. I carry a 2000Commander BTS daily, and would actually prefer a larger Commander like the ES1-M for daily defensive purposes, but I'd also love to have a Baby Commander (CommandAir) for daily back-up on my weak side as a supplement to my full size Commander on my strong side, and last but not least, I'd especially like to have one primarily for airline travel. I train with my Commander, so a smaller version of it just seems so natural for travel. I would no longer have that feeling of "something is missing" everytime I fly the friendly skies. Your daily carry knife is an extension of you, so let's downsize it just enough to make it legal for air travel and restrictive jurisdictions so that we never have to feel.. ..Emerson-less, for lack of a better word.
