I'm in trouble...bolsters, scales, pivot rings...maybe blade steel?
Oh, I'm in big trouble...
Oh, the teaser is up on the Fakebook page if you didn't get the newsletter...0 -
If it is blade steel (M390), big big trouble. 0 -

Where is this knife builder, I just see the standard models that have always been customizable. Is this just more speculation you are talking about or is there a firm list of what's configurable on the mini CR 0 -

Thanks Bill, didn't know if there was a link or a live page up. Trying to determine what they are offering so I can adjust what we are offering 
We are doing pivot rings, bolsters, scales and backspacers0 -

Likewise. Otherwise, it's a no-go for me, because I'd replace the scales anyway.
...The customizer is a good idea, but I'd be surprised if there are, in fact, steel options.0 -

If there is M390 for this new upstart before my beloved Rift, I will be one hacked off loony!!

Weeel. Then I'm good with 20CV...0 -
Oh yeah! Same here. I was just checking it out. I didn't know the CR customizer was already active.
Anyone know if the mini-CR will be customizable?0 -

I'm hoping so...
You know, to follow suit of the Barrages and Grips...
Might take a little time though, I'm guessing.
Upon first finding the CR in the custom builder, I immediately built a completely blacked out knife in 20CV with deep carry clip.
Everyone else doing that too?
Realistically, I'll be forgoing the +$60 to build it with black G10, and just order the wood scales... So I can then have some nice custom ones made.0 -
That's what I ordered, 5 of these for customization 
except with wood scales because we are the kings of crooked river scales of course0 -
/|\ Guilty ! Yes went through custom choices & while I sure lots will be spending lots of $$$, I was hoping no bolster with full G10 handle would be an option, no go at least not yet.
The CR is just one of those knives were I can see how many folks like it but it is not for me.0 -

I have a lot of folks on the waiting list for a full scale no bolster so that one may get programmed here soon! I didn't think it would be a popular request as it has been. Just finding time, we are swamped with 3 Machines running all day and 2 lights out0 -

Not even a customized Mini CR?
Maybe that’d change your mind...0 -

Yep, immediately and exactly like that - with wood scales to be replaced by customs.0 -

/|\ well maybe, but not likely at it’s size it competes with the 940s, 950s & custom knives I have that size. After all these years of collecting for me a new purchase either fills a niche I don’t have (eg Bugout) or is a better Knife than one of the knives I carry.
No knock on the CR or mini-CR, dropped on an island & that the knife your given I’d be grateful to have such a good knife.0 -
It looks great in all black with red accents. Cant wait to see one. 0 -

It will for me. I'm gonna do full-length, walrus ivory scales on one. Maybe DLC the blade.
The mini won't be available on the customizer for a while, because it's so new, if it ever is.
The full-size CR that Keyman did in stag and the recent one in CF w/DLC blade, though, are pretty darn cool ones.0 -
Aw, man...looks like the custom Crooked River has been removed from the web site... 
Temporarily, I presume...0 -

Oh heck yeah.
Fingers crossed!0 -
...and M4! 0 -
Hopefully they will add the Mini CR as well. 0 -
Hmmmm, I thought it was maybe some web site issue, but it's been absent for some time now. Will it be coming back? Jason? Madelyn? quote:Originally posted by Po:

Oh boy! What if it proved too costly to produce & project has been terminated? 0
