The unofficial, non binding, carries no weight, 2021 forum knife possibility discussion thread

FOMA???
What is this that's real?

Fear Of Major A-holes?

Fear Of Mangy Alligators

Don't know why so many are complaining about flippers. There would be no flippers if no one bought GEC knives and other knives at ridiculously high prices.

Fear of Myopic Ants.

I kind of get it, can you imagine seeing all these bespectacled ants marching towards you? It would be terrifying but also slightly amusing.

Gotta say this continues to surprise. We have a tradition of selecting a knife pattern and features by vote, within manufacturer’s limitations, and I don’t think this year is any different

I understand past tradition, this past year has not been normal, just throwing my unofficial vote out there and I feel the easier we make it for Bill the better chance we have

That's why we're hoping that the purple acrylic with gold sparkles is still a possibility.

So the proposed forum knife is a barlow with canvas micarta scales? It's deja vous all over again.

 

[metsfan]

No, it’s saw cut canvas micarta! It’s different!

 

[JohnDF]

Out

Out starts with an "O"... not an "A".

FOMA!!! Fear Of Missing Anything!!

 

[waynorth]

Got hold of a whittler when released. Had a big forced laugh when asked at least $39+ (or $57+ for USPS priority mail).

Someone lost the plot... or maybe not. View attachment 1546491

That's too much!!
JP, your inbox is full!!

Sawcut bone, I think.

FOMA= Frankly Offensive Melodramatic Artists?

I can't help it if they misspelled their acronym.....

I am hoping for sawcut purple delrin with glitter! Preferably gold glitter. Maybe a narwhals shield.

 

[Wild Willie]

I had presumed by context of @Will Power's posts he had meant FOMA to be fear of middle age...

I agree that voting for something is part of the fun.

I am guessing that almost everybody is delighted with the knife in the mockup, and will be very grateful if that exact knife is what we end up with. I know I will be.

Even so, even if it is just for the handle color, it will still be fun to vote for something.

I vote for voting on stuff, like the handle. Or not if it causes too many problems.

I don't think there's any chance it causes problems to ask. I think Bill will either say we can have some choices of a particular aspect, or we can't.

I know there is going to be a ton of interest for this knife and supply will not meet up with demand so I'm not going to get my hopes up but God willing I'll be lucky enough to reserve one.
Big thank to you to the Charlie and people who put their time and effort into making these forum knives happen.
