I voted skinner because… Duh!

But I’d like to see the kukri made. I’d definitely be buying one. Unless you offered me a K20.

To those that don’t know, the EDC is a big knife compared to the skinner.
Maybe Non.Nisi.Te Non.Nisi.Te or some other fortunate fool could put up some comparison pics for the masses.

Sorry gents, I'm out of town and all I have is my FK3. Paging EMCEE EMCEE !
 
Well, he already stated that he was planning to order steel for the kukri…
Yeah. I'm not sure how much to order though.

Usually, I like to have an order open for a small knife and a large knife and something special. Based on that, I should do the pre-order for the Skinner.

However, I know I can safely make a thousand skinners and I don't really need to do a pre-order for that. The kukri is pretty far outside of our normal offerings and I don't have a very good feel for what demand will be. From a material usage and spindle time point of view, it will be one of the most expensive patterns we have ever produced so, without a pre-order, I don't think I want to do a whole lot of them.

Looking at the poll numbers I could justify either. So the poll has served its purpose. However I am still on the fence.

We have been scrambling, getting ready for blade show and getting the last of the EDC pre-order out, so it has been pretty bananas here at the shop, everybody's juggling a lot. I'll have a chance to shift gears after this weekend and I'll figure out what we're going to do.
