Hi all,

Grunt Soldier, Thanks. Yea i can hardly wait to start on yours too lol. I just love making knives. I started on a couple more already. One I got the handles on it it has the 10" blade length like Preacher Mans, Then one with a 7" blade length not handles on it yet.

Yea I love the name too.

Hawkeye5, thanks. I told Preacher Man if I had gotten that knife there is no way I could put it away and then wait til Christmas lol. I go nuts lol.

Payette, Yea the name is pretty cool. Yea what are you goint to call that knife design that we chatted about?
I love to hear what others plan to call there knives.

rkmoore, I hope Preacher Man gets to open a present early too:D. Getting a knife in general is cool ,but a custom is awesome:thumbup:. At least Preacher Man got to see his custom knife and hold it before it went under the Christmas tree.

Chat with you all later,

Bryan

can someone tell me the difference between the Speed Bowie and the Boomslang, and why they cost so much in comparison to the other Condor HC blades?

The Speed Bowie has a 10" blade and the Polypropylene handle is slightly angled in relation to the blade a la Machax (but with a less pronounced angle). The Boomslang has a 11" blade and has a more traditional style micarta handle. As for the price, the Boomslang has micarta handles and that ups the price. The Speed Bowie is not that much out of range of the price of their other comparable size knifes (about $20 more expensive). Keep in mind that the Speed Bowie is wider than the the Hudson Bay or the Kamunga, and with more steel comes more cost. I guess that is why the price is comparable with the Thai Enep Knife. Of course, there is also marketing involved and the issue of price and demand, but I don't know anything about that side of the equation.
