I'm in for a edc-4.x in elmax....... for sure.... also 5.1 too
Great looking knives and, based on the videos, it looks like they work hard too! Just checked your website and the EDC-4s are going to be available on my birthday
Until then, I might have to order a 5.1 this Friday when they come available, there's no need to pre-order is there? Bummed I missed the GSO-10 pre-order..Also, off-topic, I noticed your OCP name tapes have "spice brown" stitching which I believe only the USAF uses - any affiliation?
Cheers,
Drano

Hey Brother, if you have not found this page yet, swing by and cast a vote. This will pretty much decide if I'll be doing a preorder promotion, like the one you missed out on. I really want to, so I'm hoping the interest is there.

Yes, pretty similar, although you'll notice some slight pommel changes as well, with the GSO-4.1. The lanyard system will be an "out the back" type, to create some more usable handle area. You won't see any lanyard hole from the side profile.
Like I said in a previous post, I just need some time to get all of the details buttoned up in solidworks, with blueprinting and such. I don't like to throw my drawings up here any more, with all of my critical dimensions and measurements. As soon as everything is done and verified, you'll see some images. I would expect to have everything buttoned up by Wednesday or so and I'll have the preorder page up by about this coming Friday.
In all honesty I am thinking about discontinuing Cerakote after the GSO-10 promo batch. It just gets scarred too easily. I mean as a user, they will wear all the coating off anyway but I should be able to get more out the door than I am without them getting scarred up a little.
I'm probably in the minority, but I say get rid of the Cerakote option. For whatever reason when coating options are available it makes it so hard for me to decide what color to get, and it costs me more money, when as you said, it's gone after some use. So yeah, I much prefer when makers don't even offer the option

Im digging the spear point. I love a spear point on a wilderness woods bumming knife. I mean look at all the high end custom/semi-custom wood worker knives from like BHK BRKT Backwoods those are all spear points and for darn good reason. I think this is a great choice to change it to more of a spear point.
As far as coatings go I think the coating would be a good idea on the 3V since it is a carbon blade but its pretty much useless on the ELMAX blades.

Ok, HUGE DEAL. I got a lead on some Bohler M390 for a steal of a price and I'm thinking about grabbing it up, as an Elmax substitute. Would anyone have any objections to that? In my opinion it's an ever better option but it just isn't normally very affordable. I want your thoughts before making a final decision....Go!
