RMK no longer puts this material on our knives, it is too porous (the dust just floats in the air) and looks awful when finished...

Thanks.


I put an order in yesterday. Got an e-mail from RMK today:
Quote:
With regards to your order for a Model 8 -4 Old Style, it is not possible to get a 'leather stacked' handle on this knife.
...
Please advise an alternate material or you might want to switch to a Model 8 in order to get the leather handle.


Guess that answers that.

No big worries, I changed my order to shop-supplied walnut. Should still look awesome.

That stinks, but you are correct it should still look awesome with the Walnut!

Another question came to mind.

What are "standard" options with a Model 14 (or Model 15) CDT?

What I've gleaned from this thread:
hilt: brass double (#1 shape)
spacers: rwb

What I don't know exactly:
handle material
handle shape
butt cap
wrist thong?

(or to word it another way, if you ordered a Model 14 CDT with no other options, what shows up in the mail?)

Thanks.

Take a look at this one Pappy! One solid 5"+ piece of Oosic on a Model 14 Solingen "Humpback" blade.

Steve,

Great knife. My #2 son has had one just like yours for a while now. It is his favorite bush knife. The fighter guard looks good on a #12 9 inch Sportsman.
