What Type Knife/Tool Would You Like To See Released From BK&T?

A 14 with a handle big enough for people with more than 3 fingers. A 16 with a 5" blade. What I'd really like, as long as we're pretending here, is a tweener with a 5" Canadian style blade. A marriage between a tweener handle and a Grohman 4 survival knife. Something less whale nosey than a Nessmuk. A Becker that looked similar to this-

Or this with a Becker handle-

I've always loved the graceful lines. It would definitely be something outside of the standard Becker models.

A quickie, haha:

well, over the years, Ethan has made knives that suit his needs...

he's not really an axe guy, so i wouldn't expect that. as well, there are amazing axes on the market, and that would be a hard niche to compete in...

saws? the market has way more than it can handle.

he hates ;) scandi edges too. skip that.

folders? it was tried. could still be in the works, should try and try again...

kitchen knives? was done... done well, but, the market...

machetes? yup. hard market to compete in again.

different shapes? again, if Ethan doesn't like them... wharnies, nessmuks, pure skinners, etc. unlikely...

more bags? he has a flair for that...

other kinds of tools? tricky. some kind of reinvention of modern bushcraft? brush axes wax and wane.

perhaps he might do something more military :D gun design... there we go...
 
Damn you Bladite, your well-thought-out-but-ultimately-buzzkill-reasoning has no place in this thread :D

Forgot about the scandi tweener. And the wharncliff tweener. I'll take one of each please.

enough people already copy Grohman without credit so "how about no?" (my vote)... :D
 
there is an obvious answer of course :D

"Becker Heavy Choppers" - designed for North American [hard]woods...

two Machaxes - original and "extra"...

a heavier khukri...

square spines. nice lines. convexed of course. parkerized. 4140. 5160. other good impact tool steels.

all this light stuff does me no good in the woods...

I agree. My E-nep is a chopping beast.
