Thank you.

This will actually be the 3rd variation of the 6" utility fighter. The primary difference between this version and the preceding versions are some handle tweaks. I don't have any finished knives to show and I don't want to show the computer renderings because they're a little confusing to look at. Here are some blanks that are not beveled or completely trimmed but help illustrate the design a little.

Hmm I have a UF in AEBL, so I'm debating whether I should get the new version and sell the old one or just keep what I have.

 

[SharpPancake]

Oh, wow!
It look closer to DEK1 in a handle department.
I like that the thumb ramp is less abrupt.
I really like what I see.

I don't need another UF But I am going to get one

You know what would be sweet? A cpirtle sheath pre-order to go with it.

Me neither. I think I’ll be getting two. One is none...

Go For it1 with Python Micarta and shark tooth inlay should be sufficient

Hmmm might be my chance to get in on a pre order!!!!

 

[Casinostocks]

Sorta rhetorical question based on Nathan stating recently that extra options such as swedge and penetrator tip slow down the preorder process, my take from that being Nathan may not be keen on splashing this preorder with too many options but I’ve still gotta ask:

Will there be an option for a any sharpened top along the swedge lines ala a double edge version? My one regret from the past being not scoring one of those OG double edge versions (not DEF, I’m covered there) when I kinda had a chance to

 

[maxkreigers]

Is the swedge a standard? Because I don't have seen any uf without.

I’ll take 2 please

As Mattie was asking; another curious CPK'er wondering if some sort of double edged version will be an option or possibility down the line?

 

[BIGDORK]

Ditto

It looks kind of cool as-is already. If that marked out area was just a big full length fuller. Could be cool.

I’m with the group that’s curious if a double edged option will be available.

Thank you Nathan, it looks brilliant.
