2014 iKC knife...TELL ME WHAT YOU WANT TO SEE

The time has come to start the discussion on the 2014 iKC knife.

I would again like to shoot for August/Sept delivery date. Something to remember while we talk about this is that a short run of only 50 or so knives means we need to tie in with a maker that is already running a knife and tweak that one to make it our own. The reason for this is most SFO's require a minimum order of 250 or more. Also I would like to keep it less than $125.00 delivered to you. I have some eyes checking out whats available at a factory or two but always love to hear your ideas. Remember, this is YOUR knife

Here is a pic of the official annual knives we have done so far

I started collecting because I liked the stockman. I have drifted here and yon, but I'm voting for a stockman with a clip, sheepfoot, and spay blades. Ya'll pick the size.

That was my first choice, a Queen Scout. Real sweet and highly collectable.

elbin, that is the jr scout, which is a smaller version of the scout. It is a current run. as far as mammoth, that is a horse of a different color ! ;) with all the hoopla over ivory and elephant ivory.. i think that would be a dead issue. but you never know ! i would think that even if the new ivory laws didnt go thru, mammoth would drive the price up over a buck and a quarter. I guess thats up to everyone and Jan tho' . I just saw that little scout jr. and figured i would throw that linnk in for consideration.. I still would go for a barlow also.and I'm sure I would go for several other good ideas also. :)

i do love that GEC harness jack..believe an 85 is the #. Ron mentioned earlier, and a few others. I do like the stockman, but I myself was hopeing for something a little more off the beaten path. I wouldnt mind a barlow, but a 2 blade preferrably. I'm more or less typeing thoughts, in the end, I'm up for whatever wins the vote. I wouldnt mind seeing a middle sized toothpick either!

Mammoth Bark? Not gonna happen for $125. Multiply by 3 or 4 times and you might be getting close.

Jeff - I like the idea of the 2-blade Barlow. Someone had previously mentioned Canal Street knives as a possibility, and they have an AWESOME stag handled one for right at $125. For something really cool and different, Ka-Bar has added a super nice 2-blade Barlow to their "Coppersmith Dog's Head" line (saw it in a recent A.G. Russell catalog, and on Ka-Bar's website), and it is well under $100, which would allow for some nice customization for the ikc.com club knife. Also, whoever keeps mentioning Mammoth Bark handle scales - that's not going to happen for anywhere near $125. Tuna Valley's 2013 "Sway Belly Trapper" with Mammoth Bark handle scales was $500 at Frank's Classic Knives.
