Well the Captain doesn't like crotch stag? Maybe this will change his mind.

Carver>Crown>Crotch

WWII leather first choice
Fwi second choice
Walker

That looks like crown-Butt to me Warren; not crotch. I'm not a crotch fan either BUT would like stag/leather combo......and the stag could sure be crown-Butt.

Duke,

Was offering up another choice.
Surely this is old school Scagel leather with a crown stag butt.

Warren,
I've owned several crotch stag handled knives, by
both" Behrings and they show no utilitarian use to me, being uncomfortable and downright cumbersome when "actual" putting them to use.
Just me, Capt. Chris
PS: Crown works much better but can "still" impede operations at times. Crown or standard stag will work for me...but W.W.II I'll still stick with as my 1st choice.

But Capt. .... you're the ONLY 1 actually using these knives....

I'd vote WWII as well, and as Grant mentioned adding in distinctive spacers to make this 1 stand out from the rest.

I've been a lurker up to now.

The build is interesting, all the options being mentioned are neat...just a matter of getting a majority vote to single things out.

About the spacers, considering there are a few sports fans on the forum, what about spacers honoring the World Series champions?

Not that I am a fan of any particular team, just thinking that something might be done to along a line set this build apart.

This website describes their colors: https://teamcolorcodes.com/washington-nationals-color-codes/

Or maybe some other theme that folks might have in mind.

Uhhhh, I was just kinda joshing ya a little Warren as I figured you knew crown butt from crotch. It's just not that often I get to comment anywhere using "crotch" & "butt" in the same sentence. And it takes very little to humor me anymore.
BUTT, I wasn't joshing about not caring for crotch; neither attractive nor comfortable in hand.
AND that's no joke.

It's all good Duke, thanks.
