I think Ted is right but I am guessing we will see that new handle on more models, looks pretty sweet. Now if Dan can come up doth formula for Orange res C that would be sick.....

So my only question is. How many War Dogs were actually made? When Dan said good luck getting in on this I was thinking like 50 or 60 or something small along those lines. They are not going to make 50-60 if they invested in the mold for a new handle. The cost for that is pretty high so they will have to put out a few knives to recoup that expenditure. Will they all be INFI? I doubt it, I think we'll see this new style handle for awhile on new models. which would be sweet cause while i dont need the size, i love the handle and would be all over a different release :P

This handle does seem like it would lend itself to more designs though.

Yes, but there are at least three versions of the Regulator and they made a lot more than 60 of them. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

I think that the handle is too slender for the offered blade. Put a slim blade on it and it would be hot. Make it out of SR101 and sell a zillion of them. The price point would fit my budget better, also. Oh, and some gimping on the spine would be cool. Thank you.
