W Polidori Knife Enthusiast Registered: 02/09/16 Posts: 5791 Loc: Central New York	Agreed, but getting back to Collin's question, I'm not aware of any handle available except a concave domed or thin rounded cap that gets him close to his wish. Why not on a 3-5? Edited by W Polidori (12/27/17 08:11 PM) _________________________ Warren

Good thought, I'm gonna go out on a limb & guess that it's just like the radiused butt cap if you don't request it you won't get it. _________________________ See Ya, Chief RKCC CM-037 RKS #5154 If you put off following The LORD just remember......They don't serve breakfast in hell!

RamKingJC Knife Enthusiast Registered: 09/12/15 Posts: 3085	If you request a rounded butt on a natural piece of wood. .. along with finger grips... you are basically at a Ward gay. So the next natural progression is gonna be why not just make it Ward Gay....?? Looks an awful lot like getting around Randalls decision to stop Ward gay handles, a decision made in part because it was being abused. Without actually ordering a Ward Gay #3. Just my opinion. .. but that's what it looks like whats being proposed here.

Colin Brolley Knife Enthusiast Registered: 11/21/17 Posts: 10	It would be missing the curve on the back and the totally rounded butt, which I imagine are the features that tip the scale toward not offering it on anything but the model 20. Given the fact that we’re talking about all options offered by the shop, I don’t think we’re talking about any nefarious here.

W Polidori Knife Enthusiast Registered: 02/09/16 Posts: 5791 Loc: Central New York	Many stag handles have the curve you're looking for. Add FG's and perhaps a thin rounded butt cap. _________________________ Warren

Not rounded, radiused still flat on the bottom just like the butt cap. _________________________ See Ya, Chief RKCC CM-037 RKS #5154 If you put off following The LORD just remember......They don't serve breakfast in hell!
