    Due to all the peer pressure to do tapered tangs!!
    I give you the "Scout Fighter". This is the second tapered tang I have done, but definitely more severely tapered.
    It is also the first knife I have done in O1. The handle is green micarta with red liners, and stainless pins.
    The OAL is 9.5", with a 4.75" blade of .250" O1.

    Let me know what you guys honestly think, this is a new direction for me.
    My stamp was a bit deep, this I know.

    I like it! Looks comfortable for multiple grips and the grinds looks real good!

    Hi Ben,

    That looks fantastic...not to take anything away from my RUK as I love it and use it frequently, but your work has really come a long way. The lines looks so nice and clean.

    I like the look of this one and I don't think your Makers stamp is too deep, I rather like it.

    Sweetness! Looks very comfortable to hold and quite capable of SD duties if it was needed.
    Cheers
