Hey Captain and Crew!

In going through this on a slow work day it looks like Micarta is the strong favorite for handle material.
- The shop supplied Red and Blue has the most mentions as being acceptable.
- Brass is slightly behind NS1 for the hilt
- It think the majority of the crew wants Thumb notches and Wrist thong. Just based on they have more pro's than Cons, and more guys said they want them then don't.
- Spacers seem to be a bit open... All Red and Red White and Blue have both gotten good consideration.

So the knife would look like this
#7-5'' with a #6 Grind Stainless (these 2 options already decided upon)
Nickel Silver hilt
Shop supplied Red and Blue Micarta (handle shape still needed)
Wrist Thong
Thumb Nothces
Spacers either all Red or Red White and Blue...

That puts us at 6 options if we keep the NS1, and we have not discussed a handle shape. Which I believe is another option, unless we just keep it "standard"

What do you think Captain Chris and crew?

I think if we did go with the Red and Blue micarta that Red White and Blue spacers really would compliment it very well. IMO

James,
I'm thinking we have been cutting bait long enough and we need to
get it built and use it on fish or put in the safe.Who ever wins that would be their option.Thanks for the update.

I was under the impression that R-B micarta needed to be a CW.

Red & blue laminated micarta is shop-supplied and costs the same as maroon micarta.
Best, Capt. Chris
PS: As far as spacers go: All red looks good with RBM also.

OK Crew,
Restless natives...ROLL CALL VOTE!! This will be final on this issue (issues).
* Wrist thong: A) Yes
B) No
* Thumb notches: AA) Yes
BB) No
No-nonsense. This vote counts. If you vote for both we're down to one option.
Thanks, Capt. Chris

Like that Captain! Not to stir the pot but have we eliminated the 22 handle with crow's beak like what the Captain posted? Regardless, I agree that we need to move this thing along and git 'er done.
