Just an idea for now... Could possibly become reality...

Just something I threw together quickly for a friend.

Want one!

Is that a folder? If not, what is the lanyard loop at the butt of the blade for? If it IS a folder what kind of locking mechanism will it use and again, why the tang at the base of the blade? At first I thought that was for one-handed opening but saw it was on the front instead of the back of the blade and there was no relief in the handle for it.

My friend and I threw the idea around of it being a folder, but we both agreed on a fixed blade.

The lanyard holes near the blade and on the butt were just an add-on I threw in. Similar to some of the Busse Combat knives. The bottom lanyard hole is elongated as a handstop.

In the near future, we hope to have access to a water jet machine and have a few blanks cut out.

Gotcha. The bottom one I understood (and like), that top one threw me for a bit! Nice design.

A little more eye candy

What are the dimensions on it ?

Will there be a BS.com special edition?

I would say either ditch the top "lanyard hole" or position it so as to create a choil between it and the blade.

+1

Otherwise looks like a solid design. I'd like one.

I like it I agree with 11Bravo about a choil replacing the top lanyard loop though. I dabbled with knife design a few years ago and be warned because it is metal and has an edge you will be widely lambasted for copying Cult of Personality Custom Knife Guy's design.

I have no intentions of making these for sale unless I decided to sell a one off.

I don't care if some knife maker gets all butt hurt because my design is similar to many other knives.
