Got an email from Gene on Friday of last week. I had actually forgotten I was on the list. A quick glance over his page and a phone call had all the particulars ironed out. I just received a tracking number and this photo in my email. I have a feeling I’m gonna like this one really well. Trim Hunter in D2 with Ivory Micarta & blue liners. Small stainless pins and a kydex sheath round it out.

That’s a dandy.
I’m liking that trim hunter pattern.

Every normal man must be tempted, at times, to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats.

My name should be coming up on the list soon. I was cruising the example list and saw this one and the Woodman that look like new patterns. Like them both. Whats the blade depth on this this? You go with 3/32 stock?

That is a good looking knife! There are a few new patterns on his site that look pretty good.

Thanks guys, Glad y’all like it. I’m chomping at the bit to get my mitts on it.
Wildcat- to be perfectly honest I do not know. I’ve never inquired about that. Anytime I order a knife I just specify the scales, liners, steel, pins and sheath. So if I had to guess I would say 3/32. Blade length is 3.25. I think it’s on his page as 3”.

That is very nice indeed.
Edited to add: I like how he went with black para cord instead of the usual leather lanyard.

Mine is 3/32". I like the thinner stock as I don't plan on doing any prying, etc with mine. I think that's the 'trim' part of the TrimHunter? Though Hig's comment above cracked me up

That's a nice pattern and some quality work.

Thanks gentleman. I’ll be sure to post some shots when it arrives.....it should photograph well next to a 1911. I’ll see what I can drum up.
