    rumors man.....all rumors..........but.......I'd say we are pretty responsive to our customers.....or we try.....

    This show has already been a really good show....we have some cool things in the works; and, while there is many a slip betwixt a cup and lip.....cool things are ahead if 1/2 of them get done!

    The photos never do the scales justice. I have an enormous amount of trigger time with customs from James. Rowen replicated these perfectly on production models. Hands down much improved over the standard scales.

    Couldn't agree more....James knows what he's doing and the people that buy his knives are usually USERS in their own right....they work, and work well.

    James has a lifetime of functional designs. I can guarantee you won’t see anything from him unless it has dirt time in the proto stage that exceeds his expectations.

    I have been impressed with everything I’ve seen with him, hope to do a class next year and maybe meet him. That’s if the health issues line out lol

    Might as well include the carving hatchet in that picture since they all have the same handle treatment.

    Agreed. The pics are deceptive if you've never held one of these in your hand. Same with the LTW 'Mountain Micarta' - they look like they'd tear your hand up, but in use I don't really think about, except when I'm thinking about how insanely grippy they feel.

    im looking forward to getting this and the axe for sure. i have the pr4 and like many heard how crappy the scales would be. i lucked up and got mine on a weekend when Patrick was at SMKW and got to talk to him. since then its been the only knife i have used. i too would love a set of the scales for a cr2 and my broken junglas.

    I got you guys fooled! lol....

    In all honesty Blade Show was NUTS and there was a lot of buzz around the booth....this was my 2nd Blade show since being here at ESEE and it was CRAZY AT THE BOOTH even more than last time to me....lots of talking, yelling at GAWs, and meeting lots of new folks as well as the usual suspects....

    I wanted to take a LOT more pics of other booths but I was fairly mission focused on the tasks at hand....made some great connections this time around!
