I am leaving out for a trip tomorrow, so I will go into more deatil about my two new variants when I can.
First of all, I had to wait like everyone else. Andy kept me informed and I can't say enough about what a great guy he is to know and deal with.
The nine inch variant (The Melvin Project) can be seen on Andy's Variant site. Actually it is 15.25 inches in overall length. "Totally Awesome" doesn't come near describing the feel of this knife. As a friend said to me this afternoon, "I have GOT to get me one of these!"
The Clip Point SH Variant with tan handles (#5) tops the list when it come to overall field and camp knives. Seven inch cutting edge, thirteen overall, finger choil, beautiful looks and balance.
Jerry was definitely in the "Zone" when he made these two. I will try to post more after I wipe out a few trees and have custom Kenny Rowe sheathes made for them.
