Captain Chris Stanaback Knife Enthusiast Registered: 09/14/05 Posts: 12676 Loc: Central Florida	For Brian's benefit (& anyone else who is interested) I offer the following: * #15's come "standard" with "no spacers" * #15's come configured and forged for a full, exposed tang * Windsor & Holzinger's examples are "non-standard" * Both of their examples are "CDT" (cut down tang) variants Below our the fresh-shot pics of the #15 that I weighed in at 12 ounces. A "CDT" version (which has spacers) would weigh "less" as we are losing that thick (1/4") blade stock, which normally runs for-to-aft! Hope this helps, Capt. Chris PS: My example also has options of: * BCP (Bowie Clip point) * Stainless * TN (Thumb Notches) * Nickel silver single hilt * BPH (Border Patrol Handle) Attachments ------ ------ ------ ------ Edited by Captain Chris Stanaback (08/20/20 08:22 AM) _________________________ Capt.Chris Stanaback RKCC/RKCA Founder RKS #016 NRA Lifetime Member CAPTSTANABACK@aol.com WEBSITE: www.captstanaback.com

@pitmaster.brian Knife Enthusiast Registered: 02/16/20 Posts: 46	Nice adventure rig Mic. I carry a 3 inch Lew Horton S&W 624 in a Diamond D guide Holster. The LH 624 has a K Frame Grip on a N Frame, chambered in .44 Special. _________________________ Brian - Michigan-NRA Endowment Member "A fear of weapons is a sign of retarded sexual and emotional maturity." - Sigmund Freud
