hmmm, maybe one of each? :p

I think the orange one will look great after it's stripped.
 
I'll take whatever the one on the far right is.

Black blade with what black and tan handle? Can someone identify it?
 
I can see your uneasiness about it Jerry. It is a drastic departure from your normal offerings for the last 10-20 of knife making. If it is a hit with the consumer, isn't that what matters? Buck up man and have a drink, oh wait that's what got in trouble the first time. :D How about settling in for a nice smooth cigar?


I would be interested in seeing the 4" model side by side with the 5" just to see how big a difference there is. I know you said that the 4" was wider from edge to spine.
 
Boss Hog, I feel your pain. But since I will probably just beat it up anyway...maybe I can help and take one of the tan-handled goodies away for you! :D
 
Black micarta for me, please. :p

I'll admit the G-10 looks great, but I'll take the feel of micarta every time.
 
Wow. Tough choices. Looks similar to a SHSJ with a beefy handle. . . which is hte reason I've never purchased a SHSJ. (Even the ABA's handles are too thin - can't wait for the SAR4 either!)
 
Well, I do miss the usual Talon hole placement, but it isn't a complete disgrace. Tell you what, send them all to me and I'll make sure you never have to worry about them again. :D

Click to expand...

I still think that the custom shop could fly the handles and modify the blades into all kinds of interesting and worth while customs. jerry dislikes the roundless of the handles, but to me that means they can more easily be controured post/production :D

I'd love to see custom shop variants of these.

I also wish I could by them as is :thumbup:
 
That second one in the first pic, is that gray G10, or micarta? Either way, that one's mine...
 
I keep thinking that I would get a Tan/UG, then strip it and grind the pommel. Then I might like it.
