Folks - Trust me on this - anything with the initials "BTK" will not go over well in Kansas...

can't be helped really.

three letter acronyms can't be universally politically correct.

Its all a matter of perception, really. One man's peace sign, is another mans symbol of hate. I don't think we can elimnate anything on the name to be PC, mostly because, anyone can find fault with anything, and call the PC police. I'm not very PC, nor do I expect others to be. Honesty is more important in my book.

I've noticed that the name "Belt Knife Series" has come up at least three times in the official thread (thankfully, first by me). I like how simple and "classy" it is, but maybe thats just me...

I hope they come with a hard plastic sheath. And I hope I win one somehow, because they will probably arrive here in Germany in April or May, and they will cost at least $100. Gotta come up with an awesome name

I'd give it a go but it's tough enough for me to spell GingivitisKahn, much less work it into an acronym.

My thoughts are to try to capture something stong, classy, that sounds powerful, and historical.

Look at the other names, Campanion, Machax, Crewman, TacTool, Necker, and so on, they all fit with the function of the knife.

Take your time, don't hurry, think it through, one good post will beat the shit outta 300 bad ones. Just sayin'.

So in addition to naming the Line of knives "Belt Knife Series" or something like that, and giving the models numbers (BKS2 for the drop point for instance), they would each need names in addition to that?

Just trying to clarify, thats all.

Yeah, name the Line, Becker Short Knives

and name each model, one name for each knife, the model numbers will follow suit.

Isn't BTK what the soldiers carved on their helmets - born to kill?

Sometimes. FBI and law enforcement use it for

Bind
Torture
Kill

There's even a movie title BTK, and it ain't a family movie.

Inevitable that it will devolve to deeply insane suggestions

With a little luck, that's part of the fun.

I understand about geography and late arrivals. But you really have a serious case. Good Luck to you, I hope that you score some pre production.
