If you could blow a pay cheque on any blade what would you choose?

user1960_pic74640_1310826995.jpgMyself, I'm already doing it right now. Russ Andrews is working on this one for me as we speak.
 
is that an 'Andrews does Loveless' gig?
that's a sweet design, the finished product no doubt will rock the house

Kinda, sorta. It's my idea for a Chute knife/Fighter style, only scaled up for my big hands. Rare stock removal piece from Russ. ElMax stainless, almost 1/4" thick. Overall length and both blade and handle a bit longer, too. Handle slabs will be that cool Bone Linen micarta with thin Ruby Red G10 liners. Stainless double guard, bolts, lined thong, etc...
 
will it be hollow or flat ground?
 
I did blow a paycheck on this one and would do it again. Shane Sibert custom scout.

Flat ground, handrubbed to at least 1000 grit. You know how Russ rolls. ;)

Here's a pic Russ sent me this morning. Blade is heated treated, finish ground, marked with his name and ready for hand sanding.

Since I have not seen a knife from any of these guys that I did not like. 3 paychecks.
Bose, Bump, Hanson. (Keep in mind, I only get paid once a month) :D.

If I could choose a knife from anyone I would get one of Don Hanson's, but the ones I would want are a bit more than one of my checks. I think his stuff looks amazing though. My other choice would be Todd Davison, I think his folder look about perfect.

Every time I talk about small folders, then this particular folder makes her enchanting appearance in my mind!
Just helplessly couldn't chase it away from there :o

A blast from the past! Thanks!

Sorry for the string of posts. I should have multi quoted these. :o
 
My choice, The last cut and shoot Wade Colter did. Goblin folder with gold tongue and blue blade and barrell. Anyone with a photo? appeared in blade when he made it. This was a few years back when He and I were still doing the spring NY show Gary
 
Danbo,
interesting design. It looks Herron to me- found this Denning fighter, maybe familiar? :)
