Middle top folder with Yellow micarta or Westinghouse and a deeper nail nick in A2 would suit me fine. Not sure I even need that shield thingamajigger.

Dude that's an awesome knife. How long is that blade...not that size matters...? His contoured handles and tapered tangs are like no others...!
Every day on this side of the ground is a win.

I agree Danny. The way he contours handles I swear it's almost like he is using my hands as a mold. Lol. They fit and feel amazing.
Ricks talent is unbelievable when he puts this stuff out. I'd like to watch him make one someday. It has to be amazing to watch him freehand all his grinds and make them perfect!!
That Lion Tamer is pretty sweet Vince. Make someone a nice hunting camp/do all knife. Not much more a guy could want there.

The time is drawing nearer for the American People to stand up for what they believe in. To stop having their rights trampled by the a$$holes in Washington D.C.

Thanks Fella's . That Lion Tamer is for a friend of mine who hikes where there are too many mtn. lions & he wanted a back up for his side arm. I think the blade is in the 6" range total & that knife is close to a foot long is my guess. This one went out today & I gotta say Rick is running peak performance Lanny's Clip with etched A-2 carbon.

Unless he hikes with a gun in one hand and/or a knife in the other...they won't do him much good if a big one gets on him. With a big lion biting down at the base of his skull or on his throat...he won't be able to draw his knife or his gun. He'll be dinner. Still a fantastic knife. I love it.

One of my favorite designs in a folder, especially without a bolster. And I agree with you Vince...Rick's running at peak performance. He makes the best knives I know of.

Danny I told him I hoped he never has to use it. I think,if not for nuthin' , it'll make him feel more secure on the trail.

All good stuff coming out of Blanchard, but the Lanny's Clip catches my eye. Been thinking about selling a kidney so that I could buy another knife, but I would have to check the lead time on Rick's books before I sell it. LOL Nice work Rick.

This is going to a friend in Texas. If he likes it. Semi skinner 3/16 A-2. I don't use this stock that often because its twice the grinding. On a 8 inch knife that has a distal taper from both ends. The knife will work for u (weight forward). Vintage black crosscut micarta. JB hunter 3/16 A-2 horsehide

Got to handle these this afternoon. They are something else! That semi skinner looks like it could slice forever.

Wow, that semi-skinner is fantastic, as much as you seem to like that A2, I may have to give it a try.
