Fireman was my first direct-from-shop order. Can you get the sawteeth option on the Fireman? _________________________ Mick Olson

LarryWW1246 Knife Enthusiast Registered: 03/20/06 Posts: 1730	@Can you get the sawteeth option on the Fireman? If you could, you would be back to just about the same knife as the 4-inch Gambler with saw teeth, although the Gambler is made from 3/16-inch stock. Or...go an inch longer and get the 5-inch Gambler in 1/4-inch steel. Larry Edited by LarryWW1246 (09/20/18 01:56 PM) _________________________ Larry W. Williams RKCC #CM-041 ABKA #046 RKS #1246

Brent Knife Enthusiast Registered: 11/06/16 Posts: 297 Loc: Mid Michigan	My thoughts would be a model 15 on my belt, and a Spyderco salt, fully serrated, clipped to my PDF. Best of both worlds,heavy duty fixed blade, and a serrated folder for rope,fishing line, and nylon strapping. Don't forget to get the waxed sheath. _________________________ Where ever you go, there you are

mic214 Knife Enthusiast Registered: 05/27/08 Posts: 238 Loc: Colorado	Originally Posted By: Captain Chris Stanaback I was thinking along the lines, similar to our "Rafting Build" we did a few years back. Freshwater/Mountain Kayaking might require a more "versatile knife", like cutting up crap if you're stranded, etc... Just sayin', Capt. Chris PS: 4 finger grip, single finger grip are "not" available on a CC/FT CCS Capt., Two questions: First, if I go with the CC without the FT, can I get either the 4 finger grip or the single finger grip handle on it? Second, Is the Model 5 with sawteeth (The Bear Camp special) still available and can that be fitted with either the 4 finger grip or single finger grip handle? _________________________ Mick Olson

Captain Chris Stanaback Knife Enthusiast Registered: 09/14/05 Posts: 12681 Loc: Central Florida	Bearcamps? No. 4 finger grip, single finger grip on a CC? Yep! You can also add a butt cap, giving you full tang construction. ...Just sayin', Capt.

Now it’s a toss up between a Model 15 or the CC with the single finger grip and butt cap! I’ll send you an email about what the cost of each knife would end up running… Mick Edited by mic214 (09/24/18 12:38 PM) _________________________ Mick Olson
