So, looks like flat top is a done deal -- no way that lead can be beat. On the material, blued is likely to get the call but copper is still possible I suppose. I'm thinking Grant is out in the woods chasing Sasquatch for the weekend so we probably won't hear from him before Monday.

I'll let this run until the end of the day tomorrow (Monday)- we're either losing participants or all have not yet voted.

I'm going to drop the hammer on this one and call the vote to a close. We're now looking at a 4.5" convex blued woodcraft with a flat top guard.

Next up we're doing to begin the handle phase. Some ideas have been suggested but for simplicity and not having to read back over we will begin that conversation below.

The options are endless at this point, from WWII leather stacks (which we can include some unique colors for a true one-off), stag, walrus, micartas, etc. I would encourage you to take a browse through the Archives https://www.behringmade.com/collections/all-archives) if you are struggling with ideas of your own. We'll put it to a vote once there are a few agreeable options thrown out.

GO!!

I like premium sambar stag. The more "popcorn", the better.

Old school leather/ stag. Perhaps a crotched stag butt would be different.

I like the "half and half" (Scagel style?) handles, stacked parts near the hilt and a hunk of horn/antler/tooth pinned on the butt half.
