they could call it the british bulldog!

Has a nice ring to it, that! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

Dan if you are following we have a product and a name, any chance mate??

Close. Georgia Bulldog! UGA UGA UGA

I am following...good food for thought.

Dan

Pardon my ignorance, but what does a Shaker look like? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />
D2 or even *cough* 440C on smaller, slicing only knives is alright by me .... my only ATS-34 knife is a Ti Spyderco Lum Folding Tanto.....but its mostly a show queen...and I haven't actually used /sharpened with an ATS-34 blade before..... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/blush.gif" alt="" />

Like this. The Busse ones look a little different, but similar.

A 3/16" thick neck knife would be pretty cool. The Becker Necker isn't bad, but I'm sure Dan could produce a better product!

The more I think about it, the more I want a big ole chopper in ATS-34. A maker as smart as Dan could figure out how to temper it just right. Just think, a big chopper that resists rust. It should be about the size of the Ontario RTAK, with a grind like the DF. If it was 1/4" thick, that would be cool, but 3/16" would work. It needs a wierd abbreviation for the name like SYHD. That could stand for Scrap Yard Heavy Duty, or maybe Scrap Yard Horn Dog ! Nobody would even challenge a blade called the Scrap Yard Horn Dog, would they?

Andy, thanks mate, you can always be counted on to find a good pic! (Can we have a look at the new anniversary SH please??)

PK, the only person that can match Dan's quality is some geezer called Jerry who seems to like scotch..

Horndog- I could find house room for a ATS34 DFLE or S7!! But a little one (like the shaker) would be better to start with.. (Plus the SS4 'missers' could get a great little knife from the BEST knife company going!)

Paul - are you going to step in when Tony Blair steps out? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

I couldn't do much worse! He may be bad (he started well then lost the plot totally) but Gordon Brown as the next PM scares the hell out of me.. He has the charisma of a haddock, the track record of Dan Quayle and the spine of an invertibrate. God help us all!

Heck what the worst thing he could do BAN ALL KNIVES?
Make it against the law for hard working citizens to own a nice folder or a Dog Father?
Never happen! Not in England.They above all peoples understand the value of steel in keeping freedom sacred right?

Peace. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />
