Hello Sal,
You showed me a plastic proto at the NYC show- roughly Native-sized with a bellied blade & "Cobra Hood". Any specs or dates available? That one was probably my favorite design there. (That & the new Lum)
Thanks!

Hi Rugger. The piece I showed you doesn't have a name yet. I finally got the pattern where I like it. (about 6 months).

I now have a proto in titanium with a compression lock & Cobra hood.

There will more than likely be several variations. At least one in Aluminum and one in Titan.

Blade length - 2.5" (62mm).

Will let you know more as it develops.

Hi Paul. I prefer to see if a model is received well before the investment of a mold for FRN (expensive). It's a real gamble when dealing with new designs. Especially with some of my more radical designs.

Sometimes, like on the Moran, we just have to try the shot because a hand made handle on a fixed blade would drive the price up into the custom range because they would, in reality, be custom.

Thanks Sal-
I'll keep an eye out for that one!

Mike
