Good idea! I hope I win!

How about multiple entries because I have three other kit knife blades on my webpage that you don't have pictured AND I have four more already completed and waiting to be photographed!

Kevin,
How long is the contest open? I somehow managed to sell all the kits I had finished (go figure

!).

It's only a mistake if you fail to learn from it!
 
I'm curious as to exactly what defines a "kit." I work with premade blades, finishing them up, but most of my pieces have scales that I selected separately. Does that count, or does the whole thing have to be 'packaged' together?

How 'bout this? My Brother-in-Law gave me all the makings for a piece for Xmas, and I'm just finishing it up now, so I'd enter it in the contest, but does it count as a kit, since I got all the pieces together, and didn't really have any particular say in the matter?

I guess what I'm asking, bottom line, is what makes a kit, and where do you draw the line for custom?

Thanks, and looking forward to hearing, so I can get my entry in, if I can!!

I'm currently working on a kit knife myself.

Am just about finished with the handles (micarta smells like barbecue!)

I hope to finish it within the week. I'm just having problems looking for brass pins.. argh!

Go to your local welding supply place and get a brass welding rod of the appropriate diameter. Most places sell it by the lb. so if you just need one rod they may just let you have it.

DannyC, what king of barbecue are YOU used to eating? Yuk!

IMHO, a "kit" knife would be any knife that was purchased in pieces and assembled, finished, etc by you. I don't think everything has to be bought in conjunction or anything like that. You have a blade, you have the separate furniture, and you slap it all together. Voila! Kit blade!

Couldn't have said it any better myself.
Relax. The contest goes for two months and the drawing will be held on the first of May.
