Moving forward in bringing to life the iKnife Collector 2012 Community Knife!!!
So far we are all in the pocket knife camp and we have had some great discussions about style.. Thank you Alexander for putting my thoughts into a language we all speak,
Frame first, then blades, then handle materials then extra's?
So far if I have been listening correctly we are looking at
Stockman
Whittler
Toothpick
Moose
Canoe
Barlow
1/2 congress
dogleg jack
My vote is for the Geppetto whittler. For those of you unfamiliar with the pattern
SO TELL ME WHAT IS YOUR VOTE FOR THE FRAME/PATTERN???

I'd like a thrre bladed whittler. I don't have any nice 3 bladed knives yet.
Stag would be cool....but the special bone could be nice too. Depending on what kind it'll be.
I like the Whittlers too, heck I like all the knives you mentioned and just like Billy said "with IKC on it".
just put my name on one thank you

Sorry folks, if I had a solid answer I would just put it out there. There are still three styles in the running and 2 companies that would like to give us bids. I dont want to spill the beans on the companies yet but I will tell you what we are getting the bids on
A three blade whittler style with possible stag handles
A wharncliff whittler with lined bolsters in a unique bone
A barlow with no shield but iKC stamped into the bolster
I have asked for all three bids but have only received one. Bear with me folks, I will get you the best deal and the best knife I am capable of brokering. Please remember that I can only do this during the times I am not working. By the way I work 6-6 M/f and most saturdays from 8-12
