You could technically fork Blink but the question is whether you have the resources to keep up with web standards. The Web is effectively the universal UI toolkit these days and the pace of development reflects that.
Why fork? Aren’t all of the major engines open source? People can choose one and build a browser around it and leave out the cruft.
You'd need to fork if you decided that you don't like the direction an engine is moving towards. Other than that there's no real reason.
