Let's get jiggy with it

Cattaraugus worm-groove
...

I love this style of worm groove AL Very nicely done along with the individual grooves inside the "worm groove"
I'd love to see more than one 'winding groove' on the covers though.
GEC did a run of 25 barlows in Banana peel bone that only had one winding groove down the middle and it didn't look impactful compared to this Cattaraugus style.

Long pull , Yes
carbon, yes
worm groove, very much worth the effort and extra expense.
thank you Charlie with sticking to this project.

I voice what everyone else has Charlie~ ^^^

Carbonated long worm for me.

 

[StoneBeard]

A) Absolutely on the worm- groove jigging. $1.50-$2.00 is well worth it for something a little different. Personally I like the look.

B) I say yeas to the long pull. Seems enough people are in favor that a poll probably isn't necessary.

C) Either carbon or stainless will make a great knife. Personally I would get a ton of use out of a stainless version, I work on and around the ocean and regularly use a multi tool punch for a variety of tasks but it would be selfish of me to only consider stainless because of my unique circumstance. I will be happy with either and get a lot of use regardless of the final choice.

Again, Charlie and everyone else putting in the work and time thank you for everything.

 

[abbydaddy]

A) I like the long worm jigging. For the cost, I think it is worth it.

B) Long Pull. Absolutely. Matchstrike if possible.

C) I will abstain from the steel debate. I absolutely prefer stainless, and I think that 440C is a fantastic steel. And I do not understand why anyone would choose 1095 over 440C, but I know lots of people do. I got my stainless last year, and that knife is a daily carry for me. This knife would be fine as mostly sitting in the safe knife. So, in deference to all the folks who like carbon, I abstain.

D) Thank you Charlie!

ETA: I think it would be nice to have a poll on steel, but the crowd seems very partial to carbon. I would be more interested in a match-strike s. long pull poll.

 

[JustinR]

Yes to it all...please give it a matchstrike long pull!

 

[Jody744]

Yes, just do your thing, CC

 

[Crazy Canuck]

This thread just made my day

Thank you Charlie!!

 

[Jolipapa]

Carbon, worm, long pull

+1:thumbup: no matchstrike, I stopped smoking.

And thank you again Charlie, you do a good job!

 

[dpowers311]

A I'm good with what is decided
B long pull is good but doesn't matter to me
C carbon steel is my choice

[NickelOak]

OK, controversial as I ever I'd like to see 440c:thumbup::thumbup: After all, we have not YET had a GEC made Forum Knife in stainless

Thanks, Will

Stainless with an acorn shield would be great!

 

[Stand Straight]

Yes, yes and yes...even though I prefer 440C I am smiling all over the place for this forum knife. The worm jigging is icing on the cake.

 

[hamsco]

Stainless with an acorn shield would be great!

That would be nice !! I would like the acorn before it is phased out.

 

[jstrange]

A. Worth it.

B. Long Pull.

C. Carbon works for me.
