Better double check me on that Captain.

Greetings all.

Is it too late to join this build? I'd be good with either a raffle or a winner-buy format.

I've been off-line for a long while caring for my wife after she had major reconstructive ankle/foot surgery (screws; Tommy John-like tendon transplant from calf; and more) following a nasty fall. She's somewhat mobile (still in a walking boot with crutches and scooter) with PT to follow, but more independent since the cast came off on Monday, and I finally have a bit of free time.

If I've read this right, this build is a for a BMK Woodcraft model knife with:
-a blued blade finish;
-a convex grind;

and the current vote is to determine the blade length. No votes have been held yet for guard/hilt, handle material/style, other options or sheath.

I believe that Jim's blade length vote count is accurate with "B" (4.5") holding a narrow (8-6) lead over "C" (5.5").

If the build is still "open", can I join and cast a vote for "C" (5.5")? If too late, let me know, as that's OK too. Still fun (and educational) to watch.

Bob

P.S.#1: Jim, thanks for running this build.

P.S.#2: Love the photo of the BMK ebony & ivory handled knife earlier on the thread.

You're in Bob!!

Please give our best regards to your wife during this recovery- may it be hasty and thorough.

Thanks Bob. Good summary. Welcome.

I am having fun watching this build come together.

Current vote count:

A-- 2

Tic-Toc...Fixin' to "travel" & was wondering just how long we are going to wait on the blade length vote?
Just sayin', Capt. Chris

Grant said to wait so that's what I'm doing.

Grant said on 10/31 give it another day and recount on Blade length before moving on. If B is ahead...then B is what we should go with.

That's fine but he won't be available to provide guidance for another couple of days.
