I was just thinking if it was possible for Dan to do, would anyone else be up for an Uncoated,un-finished, full width tang version of a YardKeeper with a skeletonised tang so we could fit our own wood, micarta or paracord wrap handle ?

Especially if it was about 65$ to 70$. Busse Combat has been throwing around the idea of comp finish blades with no coating and a zero edge.

I would honestly buy anything they produce, but this sounds like a good idea.
its kind of what diceman was talking about for a skelly.

A smaller skelly would be cool. I would rather see a yard keeper sized knife have handles. Different options would be nice, maybe wood or micarta.

I'd be interested! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />

I've done plenty of handle work on all sorts of knives and would love to customize one of Dan's blades, especially if the price is right. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

I'll probably eventually do this at some point anyway, it'd be great to not have to destroy a good handle to do it though. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/blush.gif" alt="" />
