In the pocket all day again. A few little pepper spots forming.
Let’s just do this one again with a different handle material.

I'd be happy with the same handle and a different blade type.![]()
Agreed. With such a small number of them actually being flipped for a profit, it's always curious to me why it seems to dominate the conversation.If under 5% of forum knives end up being flipped, I'd count that as a success. No need to spend energy trying to solve the remaining % amount. 95/100 is an A in my book.
No danger of that.Please don't be discouraged if someone stomps on your idea, that usually means it is a good and valid one. Bad or unpopular ideas usually die on the vine, if someone thinks your idea should be suppressed, it's probably because they think it might get alot of support and they want to prevent that from happening.
No danger of that.
I know that my "ideal" or "dream" knives would garner little to no support among the masses: Multi Blade, "Too Big"/Too "Heavy", etc.
(A 3 spring 5 to 5.5 inch closed Sunfish/ Whaler/Elephant Toe/Pocket Axe/ Emergency Spatula/Rope Knife, (or whichever of the 75 plus names it goes by that you prefer), with either 5160, 52100, 10xx, or 440C FFG Spear Point Primary, full size Lambsfoot or Sheepsfoot secondary blade, with a Robeson punch/awl, or a screwdriver/cap lifter 3rd blade, one piece color case hardened steel bolsters and liners, brass or bronze pins, and checkered walnut or tiger stripe maple covers, and no shield, for example.) so I keep quiet.![]()
I would be in for a couple of those. Do you know what manufacturer makes that pattern? We couldn't pay for new tooling and keep the cost reasonable I'm afraid.No danger of that.

So I hope you all please carry on with the squabbling and fighting!!![]()
mmm ....if you have him build 0.125 of a knife, wouldn't it be worth 16 to 24 million if one is worth 2 or 3 million?If principles hold true, and the fewer the knives, the higher the price, I am going to ask Bill to make just ONE Bf Knife, and I will sell it for 2 or 3 Million and be RICH!!!!! BwaaHaaHaaHaa!!![]()
