Same as you Billy. And I'll be glad to switch my vote to NS, as when I got to vote it was already a sinking ship so I just went along. I agree re: with what you say.....won't keep adding to it, but would really, really like to see this build NS. Ain't ordered till its ordered.

Let's here about your ideas!
Thanks, Capt. Chris


The way I read this, brass it is. No charge for either type hilt.

Exactly! That's why my preference is for SMOOTH brass!

Uhhh we know it's brass. We are just bitching about how brass is a bitch to keep looking good.

I've always loved to stir the pot......& like grandpa said ”boy the more ya stir it the more it stinks." So count the votes, & get 'er done. If I'm lucky enough to have this bad boy shipped to me I'll be glad to whistle while I polish. AND , hell James you mean this isn't a useable knife? Aw, nuts!!!

no fun to be had around here....
I choose brass...oh, wait...
So, if you want more area for engraving, wouldn't a lugged hilt provide that....
Lugged hilt, smooth collar
