Ok, so if I look at a Model #16 Special Fighter I get this: (All for $385.00)
7" blade of 1/4" stainless steel stock. Top cutting edge sharpened approx. 3". Brass double hilt. 4 1/2" handle of durable Black or Green Micarta. Extra heavy 7/8" wide tang extends through channel in handle, which is firmly fastened with epoxy. Standard with Black Micarta finger grip handle. Single Finger Grip and Border Patrol handle shapes available. Sawteeth not available.
Stainless Blade - No Charge Full Tang - No Charge Micarta Handle - No Charge Lanyard Provision - No Charge Sharpened top edge - No Charge
So what Options could I put on this Knife??
SFG or BP handle Nickle Silver Hilt NASA Micarta?
Have a couple of these knives but was just wondering. Heck of a deal for $385 But for ~$20 could get a Diver with sawteeth (wish I could get it with other than Finger Grooves) BP??

Divers can come finger rgips, single finger grip or border patrol. You can have the standard blade, sawteeth os NST, sawteeth grind / no sawteeth. Makes the sharp top edge much longer. The #16 spl. fighter is a lot of bang for the buck also. Capt. Chris Here's a couple of different #16-7" NST...Enjoy...CCS

Micarta is linen. Either color is considered "non-chargeable". Full tang is standard and no CDT is available. Double hilts (I think) are only considered standard with sawteeth. Single hilt are standard, along with thumb notches, on a standard blade. As far as options go: 1) Sawteeth 2) Sawteeth (No sawteeth) like the 2 blades I have shown above 3) Nickel silver hilts (either single or double) 4) Border patrol handle 5) Single finger grip handle 6) Waxed leather or nylon sheath (Not charged towards the "5" option limit) 7) Name plate 8) Blade etching (one or two lines) 9) CW: Custom handle material but it must be 1/4" slotted and exact specs to shop's requirements. My internet will not be connected until sometime late tomorrow at the new locale. Be patient if I cannot respond. Thanks in advance, Capt. Chris
