Nice knife Matt..."BUT"...(There's that word again) the purpose of the "starter set" is to limit options and build a base for a collection. If everyone wants to trick one out then that's what we'll do. Although it wasn't the original intent of these builds, I'll build whatever we agree upon as a committee.
How about this, Crew: Let's start this starter set with a "ROLL CALL". Vote for one of the following:

A) Model #4 / "5" inch blade
B) Model #4 / "6" inch blade
C) Model #4 / "7" inch blade

Let's hear from ya'll. After we have decided on "which" Model #4 we're buildin'...we'll work on "how". Thanks to all for your suggestions thus far.
Best, Capt. Chris
