    Default "I'm your huckleberry!"

    I done a unique give away on a different forum I frequent where I/we designed a knife on the forum, I made the knife then all the names went into a hat and then drew for the knife. I will do it here also if there is enough interest. You guys let me know if y'all want to play, start throwing me Ideas and sketches, of course someone will have to be the deciding factor (me) as there could be quit a few different inputs. Lets keep my cost under 100.00 that should make a heck of a 8 to 12" knife. If you guys are not interested that's fine also I'm just looking to do something different.

    I've had a couple of ideas but am a horrible drawer. I might try to get something on paper for you.

    Cool idea.

    3/16" - 1/4" thick Bowie would be nice.

    Man, I have to play along. The Oklahoma Pig Sticker. That was one scrumptious knife.

    The Oklahoma Pig Sticker was the give away knife from the other forum, it was cool if I do say so myself.

    I think a classic Bushlore-type blade would be great.

    Bowie...check
    pig sticker...check
    Bushlore-type...check
    Knife like Matt Graham, almost check as I do not know what type he uses will need to do more research.

    Maybe a hybrid of the "pig sticker" and a traditional Bowie, but the game is young right now and I hope there will be more input.

    Yep its goofy looking but I get some of the design factors, we will add it to the list, at some point we will have to vote on a shape and size but we will let it cook for a while as I'm about to move and move the knife shop also, from a 12 x 12 shack to a 30 x 40 shop yes I'm excited. Plus give everyone who wants time to find the post and give there input, I may just learn something from doing this.

    That is kind of interesting. The finish looks like kuruichi (as it would be called a Japanese knife, not sure what the word is in English).

    My vote is for the Matt Graham knife as well.
    Looks like it would do well in any outdoor setting.

    And good luck with the shop move!
    When all else fails, read the directions, and beware the Chihuahuacabra!

    Well if we go the "Matt Graham" direction we may make it a 2 piece set as that looks more like a small machete to me...lol. What is the hole in the blade for? I assume the lines are just for looks?

    There is still time to get pulled in a different direction.
