The prize is a handmade 2-3 finger wharncliffe with horizontal carry sheath. I can get three fingers around the handle. Your results may vary. It is not perfect, but it is a very useful little knife.

Steel: A2
H.T.: Paul Bos, 60 R.C.
Cutting Edge: 3"
Tip to Handle: 3 3/8"
OAL: 6 5/8"

Handle materials are: cocobolo-color dymondwood with olive g10 overlay. Stainless pins and tube.

The contest:

The Sugar Bowl is scheduled for Jan 2. Guess total offense, yards for the two teams combined. Example: Oklahoma 370, Alabama 30. Total combined 400. It does not matter if you go over. All that matters is who is the closest.

Furthermore:

1. Only guesses posted in this thread will count; no guesses in Private Message or email will count.
2. Only guesses posted before the coin toss will count.
3. You can change your guess as often as you want, before the coin toss.
3. Don't be squirrelly and wait until the last second to post or change your guess.
4. I will pay Priority shipping to USA destinations. For other destinations, I cover the first $6.00, you cover the rest.
5. Don't be squirrelly. :cool:
6. Don't be squirrelly, like this:

If I forgot anything, let me know. I don't want things to get squirr.... never mind.


It is an experimental design.

To the winner: If you think it should have a shorter or pointier blade, let me know. I can try carefully grinding some off.
