Just as the title says i know there was mention of such a knife but it seems to have been forgotten or put on the back burner. Is this still planned or has it not garnered enough attention to bring it into production. I know the Southfork is a similar product but I'm just curious about the fate of this project.
I love the feel of the handle on the Bushcraft, would love to see this model used to make sprint type runs with different steels (M4, M390, 3V) and different blade shapes.
It's still on the project list. We're still trying to determine if the demand is there to suppoort a run. We don't have a strong following for our fixed blades, and we have several being prototyped now; (Bradley, Wilson and the ARK).

Thanks for the reply sal i had a feeling this could be part of the issue. So i figured i would rekindle some interest by making this thread. I'm trying to get more people into the S90V scene i have a co worker waiting for the manix XL in S90V. I'm in desperate need of a southfork myself. I bought 2 lum tanto sprints as did my friend but i guess we aren't the norm. But i think people don't fully understand S90V.

I've been planning to get into S90V soon with the Yo2 from KW but I can't see why I would need it honestly. I've been buying a lot of older Spydies with AUS6 and AUS8 steel and these are quite adequate for my means. I used a Vagabond with AUS6 exclusively on July 4th for kitchen prep and it would still shave at the end of the day. I was extremely surprised at this and have a newfound respect for the older steels. I wan't to get an S90V steel but when I have these oldies that work extremely well for my purposes, I find it harder to justify. That's not to say I won't buy one but it will definitely be more to try out the steel.
I am most certainly interested in the NASA version of the bushcraft. But then again, I'd buy a letter opener in CF/S90V... as long as it had a Spyderhole :)
it's definitely my most used woods knife. it's funny that a company known for folders also happens to make the best fixed blade woods knife in my opinion...i'll keep spreading the word. everyone who followed my advice and bought one agrees it's the best handle design!
