nice thread!

here is my revised vote:

26
shortened fine silver hilt (square-top, but only if we can also do slab sides)
all red spacers
green micarta or LV
slab side BPH
fine/sterling silver name plate (i know, not possible)
no thong thole

special forging: NO CHOIL!

I realize that last one is probably not possible either, but RMK would have no trouble selling out of a numbered run of 100 of "Loveless Commemorative Drop Points" like I've described...

BL's passing might just be important enough in the knife world to justify that kind of special project. I know that he was not the most like-able person, though I'm not sure if he had any relationship good or bad with the Randall family in the laters years which may influence the decision one way or other. I'm just thinking it would make a really nice knife.
