Here is the next run I am going to offer: the Chinook Chopper! Just like the big, tough military helicopter, this blade is ready to git R done! :D All dimensions are approximates but you're looking at 16 1/8in overall with 10 3/8in of blade that is 2in wide. I am using 1/4in thick 5160 for the blade material. in the pic is the rough proto which is going to be my user for a while :) The finish will be a Scotchbrite satin(not the tempering color in the pic). I will be making 6 of these for the run. Price is $400 shipped in the US with a Kydex sheath. No deposit is required. Below is a list of available handle materials. If you are interested, EMAIL me with your forum name and handle choice. I am shooting for an april delivery date on all 6.

Available handle material:
Natural Canvas Micarta
Green Canvas Micarta
Black G10
Orange G10
Maroon/black G10
Coyote Brown G10
Reddish Pakkawood/Diamond Wood

I finally got the proto finished up :) I think I am very pleased with how it looks and more importantly how it feels. Sorta inbetween a large camp knife and a small machete.
