Sirupati, Cheetlang. How about something different?

[folderVSfixed]

Lets see if I have this correct. The Sirupati was meant to be used primarily as a combat knife first and a utilitarian blade second. The Cheetlang is a "Frankenstein" made from a blend of different knives to make a knife that has all the great characteristics of the others that set those particular models apart. How am I doing? Now how about something different. I am looking at my Cheetlang right now and am thinking that a model with a longer even thinner blade, oh say about four inches or so, with a spine thickness of about a 3rd less and a micarta handle instead of horn or wood with a full tang instead of the rat tail tang. The sheath could be like the ones that were made for the wwIII's. Could be expensive but I think it would be a really mean, fast and light fighter!
Whatcha think Craig? Is it doable?

Oh yeah, since my last name is Ballard, and we are basically talking about modifying the Cheetlang. If it is doable we could call this new model the """""BALANG"""""! Sounds good!

It'd be doable, but only AFTER the WWIII knives are finished. For those of you who've been around a while, you know how long it's taking to get the last batch finished!
