I ordered my custom from Petes Custom Shop today. Have been putting it off for a while but after reading all the positive comments from those who have one decided now was the time. I decided on the Damascus blade with nickel silver bolsters and Asian buffalo horn scales. I must have spent nearly an hour trying all the different configurations. Nothing indecisive about me. Anyway the better half liked this one too so who am I to argue. I don't think it is going to be my last, the Sambar stag with BG42 blade really appealed too, and the jigged bone, and the........
Just gotta wait the 4 weeks now.
 
Great joh, when you get the knife, let us know how the Damascus turns out. I was almost going to go for it when I ordered mine, but couldn't resist the BG42. I think when the 532 comes to the Custom Shop, I'll get one in Damascus and one in BG42, ine to drool on and one to use!
I guess your biggest problem now is the wait!
Hang in there, it'll be worth it.

Brian, I was intending to go with the BG42 but I don't own a Damascus knife so decided to go this way. I have the 110 Master in BG42 and the 560 Titanium with 420HC so now I have all 3 types of steel. I must admit that the BG42 is excellent steel so will probably end up getting the 532 in that when they are available.
Don't know what happened to cause the double post, Gremlins I suppose.
