...a tough choice but I'll stick with:


B) RMK shop-supplied aluminum

A

B...as BRAVO..!

A. Most of the 10's I see are Micarta and then Rosewood. Not so many Aluminum, but very seldon one with kick ass wood. Capt has the goods lets use them and make this knife special.

It's been a bit of time (and "2" knife shows) since this build was discussed. The score is 11-9 in favor of Capt. Chris' stash of handle material.
We have some new forum members who have recently joined us. Perhaps we should give this a couple of days before we move on. Let's call it on Wednesday evening, around "8" my time.
Thanks, Capt. Chris

Looks like all have spoken. I'll dig up (and cut up) some contenders.
Best, Capt. Chris

Outstanding!

Wooden it be nice if the Captain could find a killer piece of
wood for this build?????

I'm really looking forward to see what you'll be "digging up", Capt. Chris

Well...It's been kinda' hectic larely but a promise is a promise. This is the forst of "2" groups ya'll can pick from. I would ask that you vote, by designated letter, for the handle material you want. There are "7" choices here. I will provide an additional "7" after these have been voted on.
I think it best if we do this in 2 stages, by process of elimination. Of these first "7" only "3" will make the semi-finals. We will then move on to the second group of "7" and eliminate all but "3" from that group. After the top "6" are decided we can whittle or vote for one winner or whatever, i.e. see how the vote goes. I hope that is agreeable with all ya'll! (That, Tony, is a Southern plural).
Choice A) This is stabilzed Red Mallee Burl and would work quite well.
