@Ron L I’m willing to take 60% of the blame for this.


Maybe 75.


Point is, you and Christopher Walken own some of this.

Yes, that's for sure. And it's awesome!

Looking good John!

 

[Redmeadow Knives]

Thanks guys, the reddish scales are natural micarta out of a potato paxking/processing plant (from what I was told anyways). It has a lot of oranges in it and the sun really plays with its color. I have some hefty blocks, it might make for a good block handle some day.

pfffttttt. Are you mad?

Green micarta is the only acceptable answer to any (man made) knife handle question.

Yep, the plan is to always have two of these in the works, I'll start another pair as soon as these ship. If anyone's interested it might be a good idea to throw a Dibs out now.

Got em. Thanks guys

When these two are done I'll lay out all of the details for this model in a seperate thread. For now, If you have a color preference in Micarta or Richlite let me know and I'll see what I can do.

 

[trevitrace]

Another dibs if possible.

Got it, I'll start a list. Remember that these will go in pairs so you'll be after John L. and Sheldon unless they need to bow out.

Welcome to the sub by the way

 

[trevitrace]

Thank you, sir.
