Those look excellent. I was thinking from the other thread that you were looking for ideas for an Altoids-tin sized knife (not sure why I thought that), but these are a very useful size with a real handle and they look great.

I especially like the top one. Something about it just looks "right."

I think the price is very fair, as are the add-ons. Best of luck with this run!
 
those look great Mark... i think the price is more than fair too..:thumbup:
i also really like the top one.. that one would look cool with some brown micarta..:)

hhhhmmmm... i guess i will take it, if it's not already spoken for... natural/brown micarta and no sheath..:thumbup:
 
I'd really like the middle one, but I'm still saving up for another knife and trying to recover from paying for my rear-ended car, so I'll have to wait.

I am curious, though, how much one like the middle one would cost with a blade half that length? My mom needs a blade for work and I might be able to scrounge up the money to be a good son and get her one :P

Do you want it "bare bones" ? I was selling the smaller blanks out of my earlier neck knife run for $40.00 ...

Yep, bare bones with a 1.5" wharncliffe blade. Really it could probably be fine with a bit shorter of a handle, even--she's a nurse and manager of a dialysis clinic, so it's going to be opening medical supplies, nothing hardcore.
 
Ok, This week I have already heat treated alot of these, so we will see how people like them. MntFolkMike's knife is up first cause he paid, but I plan on getting a 3-4 ground today. As soon as they are ground I will post up photos....
