I have the first batch of K9 American Pitbull Terriers (A.P.B.T.'s) in the works. Still a ways to go but they should be ready before Blade! :)

I decided to do a run of full CUSTOM A.P.B.T.'s because I just couldn't wait that long! :)

If you haven't seen the A.P.B.T.'s here is a link to the first two I made LINK Lots of info there as well as a bunch of pics.

These are all A2 tool steel. You have your choice of handle materials. All will be numbered. These will come with a oil tanned leather sheath made by my local leather guy Butch. Kydex is available in ADDITION to the leather sheath for $45.00.

These are going to be $285.00 + $10.00 S&H. No need for a deposit up front. The price includes your choice of micarta/G-10 and liners, with the exception of antique white, that is an additional $25.00.

The only natural handle materials options are for wood. If you are interested, let me know what you want and will get you a quote.

If you want one of these please let me know by posting in this thread.

Here is a shot of the blades, just back from Paul Bos. These are ready to start putting together.

Mr. K:

Please consider me "in." I would like one and probably with a wood handle -- what are the options? You can reply here (so all can drool) or simply e-mail/PM me through BladeForums.

I've been looking forward to this.:)


[Oh. If the wood possibilities are too endless to list, I prefer hard woods for these user knives. Something like a desert ironwood ... or similar.]

Click to expand...

SURE! What number would you like?

Here are the woods/prices I can do.

Blackwood, high contrast Ironwood, and Coco Bolo are $50.00
Stabilized Buckeye Burl $65.00
Exhibition grade Ironwood burl or Koa. $100.00

You HAVE to choose a liner color with the natural materials. I have found that a liner really helps with expansion/shrinking with natural materials.

That was fast.:)

I would like either the high contrast ironwood or the buckeye burl ... whichever one strikes you as "right" when the moment comes.

Liner. Hmm. I think a nice black liner would be good with either of those woods.

Number 10 would be fine with me.:thumbup:

Do you think mosaic pins would look good with this?:confused:
 
Excellent. Please pop a couple of mosaic pins in there, if you would.

I know ... excessive for a knife I plan on using hard. Sometimes, my enthusiasm gets the best of me.:eek:
 
Please put me down---I guess #16 unless it's been jumped on:

Dark Earth G10, red liners, satin, kydex. :)
 
Thanks for the email Tom:thumbup:

Number 11 please, or any other if 11 is not available.

Thanks,
Jonny

Details in a bit
 
No 14, or any other available number for me please. Black G10 w/ red liners. Satin finish.
 
Please, to available number for me.

Black G10, Red liners, Satin finish.

Two knives if possible.
 
The list has been filled so I am going to lock this one. Feel free to post a new thread if you have a question.

THANKS!

Tom
