I had thought the theme was WW II but there was push back on that. So, now the theme is whatever the majority wants.

Close vote on the blue/no blue. I count 8 for blue and 7 for no blue. So, the blues have it. Next is a convex or hollow grind.

A -- convex
B -- hollow

I'm going to jump in a bit here to assist in flow. "Ideas" for handles have been suggested but this has not been voted nor decided on so that part of the conversation seems to confuse and should be left alone for now.

We have clearly set a Woodcraft to be the blade choice so now are currently voting on two things:

-Blued or Nah

-Convex (smooth) or hollow grind (with hammermarks).

The next thing to be voted on should be blade size.

Once we get that "honed" in, we can discuss what should be done with the handle. In the past, guard style came next (tall, standard, S guard, half S, etc). Handle details will then follow. Keep in mind WWII handles get blued steel guards, in which USUALLY (but not always) are paired with blued blades.

Designing knives isn't quite as simple as it seems now is it? smile

No reason for any frustrations to come of this my friends. Like James told me when we first met in 2012: "KNIVES ARE FUN!"

Thanks Grant! Obviously, "we" (as in me) needed some professional assistance here. ;-)

I care not which grind..."BUT"...convex has "never been done" in a blued blade. Therefore, put me down for that
Convex, Capt. Chris
