Looks great!

It begs to be used. Are you going to do any prototypes with handle slabs?

Looking forward to getting mine!

All the best,

might be a silly question, but what are those other little leather things in the pic?
i was thinking maybe some type of cool holder for the pencil?
oh well, it was my only guess. thanks

[Daniel Koster]

Oh crap. I paid for a skeletonized, but that green micarta is looking SWEET! What to do?

 

[HikingMano]

get one skeletonized AND one with green scales

 

[orrey45]

Thats a very nice looking blade. Would it possible to take a spine picture of it?

 

[mapper66]

OK, wish I could afford two. I did switch to GCM. I feel better now.

 

[Mentor]

Wow, that was fast!

The scales look great. You can tell that this knife will be very comfortable in the hand.

Top notch!

All the best,

Comfy-in-the-hand it definitely is...!!!

Dan, as always, your work looks amazing - I can't wait for the Bushmaster, and I'm planning on putting my name down on this list too.

I see there's an option for Blue/Black G-10, and I'm wondering how you think it looks - I know your opinion on the green micarta, so I'm torn between the two. Any thoughts?

 

[Daniel Koster]

Blue/Black G10 is near the top of my favorite synthetic handle material. :thumbup:

It is tough, impervious to moisture changes, dense and (when blasted) can be very grippy. Plus it just looks good.

Blue and Black it is. Thanks Dan :thumbup:
