    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

    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 backspacers

    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.

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

    No M390...
    No M4...

    The current steel options are:
    D2
    S30V
    20CV

    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?

    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.
    Cool


    Everyone else doing that too?
    Smiler


    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.

    That's what I ordered, 5 of these for customization


    except with wood scales because we are the kings of crooked river scales of course

    /|\ 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.

    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 out

    Not even a customized Mini CR?

    Maybe that’d change your mind...

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

    /|\ 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.

    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.

    Confused


    Temporarily, I presume...

    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?

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