Verrrrry nice.
Oh, and you can't just go and post that pic and not tell us how to get one like it!:D
What's the current time-frame / cost for something like that there purdy knife?

Thanks for the interest!!! Not really taking orders right now. The wait time is like 2 years for me to get to my last orders. Just wanted to share here since I think this is one of the better defensive/equipment oriented forums out there.
I will be at bladeshow Atlanta but just posted here hoping I can add to the enjoyment of the forum :)

Okey-doke. Congrats on your success!

Thanks TP. Wish I could do more. Grant has 2 I made about 4 months back. He can give honest feedback I am sure :)
Brian,
Very nice! What is the blade thickness/length? Love the flat grind.
Its a 4" blade made from 0-1 steel differentially heat treated. 5/32" stock on these. Not too thick or thin for heavy duty use.
thats also a great knife Brain.
thats a great knife to make a set with my OD green Trailsman.
then i would only need that B Goode combat to complete te set
HAHAHAHAHAHA
thanks wookie

I really like the looks of that knife! Is the grip textured or smooth?
I have to get you that Combat knife first Wookie :)
I haven't forgot about ya buddy!!!
Its sort of a combination of smooth and rough. The outer area around the exposed tang/red liner area is smooth, and then I take 120 grit paper and hit the sides to create a rough grippyish feel + smooth clean to the eye exterior boarder. I might actually go back to a rougher 80 grit paper on this one since its mine :)
Reason I use sandpaper to create the feel is that the end user can put that same feel back on with a couple of bucks if the grip gets smoothed out with use over time.
Thanks Brian,
looking forward to it.
thanks wookie
Brian,
That is the knife I am waiting for! I think it will only be one more year this summer for my name to hit your bench!
Looking forward to it. Great knife indeed.
Take care.
