Nice pair,Ryan !!!!!____________the end cap on the Beaver,really makes it stand out !!!! I like the end caps, but they don't do them much (cost factor,I guess ??? ::shrug:: )

Yep... I have to agree, end caps are the way to go, depending on the pattern, it just doesn't seem right without. I guess cost is a factor but how much more could it be $5-$7 a knife to add em'. Perhaps they do without to change it up? ::hmm::

Don't you think it's a combination of the style of knife, tradition for the pattern, taste of the people making the knife and the cost it adds to the knife?


I can't be quiet any longer. The title of this thread cracks me up. ::facepalm::

Yes Jerry. I believe all that plays into cost, end cap/no end, etc. ::nod:: I have been pretty much on board with the majority of the knives they put out, heck they'd have to read peoples minds to get em' perfect! ::doh:: they do just fine, it's only that's sometimes certain patterns one says to themselves "this is a great knife, if only it had an end cap..." :mrgreen:
