...It's not even really close, Crew. The "7" gets the nomination! We still have a lot to build, but we know it if going to be based on the #7. Remember: ONLY "5" OPTIONS which are chargeable! We can vote for:
* 4 1/2" blade
* 5 " blade
* Carbon steel
* Stainless steel
* Brass hilt
* Nickel silver hilt
* Thumb notches
* Red. white & blue spacers
* All red spacers
* All black spacers
* Alum. & black spacers
* Alum. & red spacers
* Brass & black spacers
* Brass & red spacers
* Collars
* #6 grinds
* Butt caps
* Butt plates
* Coolie caps
* Flanged caps
* Domed caps
* Rounded caps
* Wrist thong
* Bunches of sheaths choices
* Etc, etc...
....."AND"...We haven't even started with handle materials, etc. I'd say there's still a lotta' work to do.
What's next?
Thanks, Capt. Chris

I think a fishing knife should have:
* Stainless steel blade
* Thumb notches
* Wrist thong
...and my preference would be for:
* 5" blade
* #6 grind
* Nickel silver hilt
* Alum. & red spacers
* waxed no-hone sheath

Out of curiosity, what purpose do you have in mind for a sharpened top edge on a fishing knife max?

I like the specs Steve, but I think I'd wait on spacers until we decide on handle material. I can do without stainless as well, I carry an oiled rag or Tuf Cloth

Max,
TB is "not" an option.
Sorry, Capt. Chris

I'm down with what Steve posted, with the exception of the spacers.

Come to think of it, I'm not attached to any spacer arrangement in this context, RWB would be fine in my book.

my must haves are stainless, #6 grind, and a bright colored micarta and wrist thong, not sure if #6 grind is chargeable or not. Other options are open
