Awesome knife! What kind of production numbers are we talking about? Thanks! 
Pocket, fixed, machete, axe, it's all good!

Re: Maher &Grosh "Framer's Friend "
This is great! I understand the pic is only a mockup and will not be blue-- are there any known details re: handle material that you can share? Do plans include a shield?

Controversial opinion--I would quite like it to be blue.
Setting aside some dough for this one. My first GEC and first farmer's Jack.
