The mission that I posted (single hilt with musk ox and horsehide #25 style handle) has a 6" blade (slightly smaller than the 7" Mission that Gerry posted above).

I wholeheartedly agree with the Capt. that the "build knife" should be available for later orders, and I like the idea of a slight variation to the handle or no special etching to distinguish the 'second generation' knives from the original build knife. It's great that James and Grant have agreed to do this for us and I'd bet that some of the participants whose number is not picked for the build knife would welcome the opportunity to order it separately.

I love the BMK hammermarks, but I'm also not convinced that the skulls are the way to go.

How about a large drop point camp knife?
