Hi I am new to the forum and thought this would make for a interesting conversation. If you could design a knife to your specs what would it look and feel like? Make sure to put in the blade length, grind, thickness, and handle
design in. I think mine would be a 10inch blade that is about a 1/4 inch thick
with either a saber or flat grind. the handle would be a be a rubber handle to absorb shock and to give a good grip even in water. it would be a full tang blade
with a hammer pommel to pound tent stakes and to help make traps and snares. The over all knife length would be about 16 inches. looking forward to comments.
Gundog, welcome to the yard mate! Like everyone else said, get a DF.. Very good big knife, the DF.
So my pick then;
Dream world, double cut, SOD LE in INFI! Supplied from the factory in low ride Rainwalker kydex.. I'd have to buy three though, in case customs confiscated any of them during travel... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
In the real world, SOD CG with orange res-C and an urban gray blade. Looks less tactical, so less scary for sheeple!
Of course a sage and black SOD would be nice too!
(Though if I'm honest, anything new from the yard with a steel guard lug between your fingers and the edge would be nice. Anyway, back to lurking for the next few months!)
