BLADE SHOW BUILDS...........................


Well then: CREW,
Apparently, with one possible exception, we are (officially) a "GO"!! Here's how this will work. "Most" of the decision-making will come from you, as always, on these 3 knives. "Some" will have to be made by me, being the location and limited internet access and time (of course)...."BUT"...It all starts :
....................HERE AND NOW..................
We are going to build 3 Randall knives, each to be the majority-choice (voted on by you) of each and every category. I will list the 3 categories and several Randall model options for each. We will vote those groups of knives down to one...and one "only"...for each category. I will "shop-the-floor" at Blade and come up with some "killer" handle options (believe me on this) for us to vote on for each category.
Now then: From that point, I will separate the builds into 3 individual builds and we will conduct them, as is usual. Anyone who contributes to any build will be eligible to enter their name and a number guess into any of the builds. You can opt out of any that don't fit your pistol or go for all "3"! I hope this will be fun...cause I know it's gonna' be work! Good luck to all of you crew...and let's get rollin'...!!!

Stay sharp, Capt. Chris

A-9 Model#28
B-2 Model#7-5 # 6 grind
C- 10 Combat companion

Keep in mind Crew: #28's and #10's don't give a whole lot of "fudge" room. That's fine...and, when you're talking custom handles, the #28 is a "no-show".
Best, Capt. Chris
