Thank you very much :) It's funny, the thread on shop talk about mirror finishes, I said I don't do them, well guess what this one ended up with one! It's so reflective you could hang it on the wall and use it as a full length mirror because it's so fricken big :eek: :D Seriously though, 5160 is real easy to get a good finish on without alot of effort.

Nice job Scott. That looks like it would be a pleasure to use, and it ain't bad on the eyes neither!

Thanks Ed. It is a beast :eek: With the handle you can have a choice of three different grip options.

Thanks Robbie. ;) I'm hoping it will get used so I get feedback on it's performance.

Well, I like it. It seems to have that rustic feeling that calls out to all men with a hunter instinct.

Good job.

Funny you mention that because hunting is one of my passions and maybe a little of the hunter in me came out while making this knife. :D Thanks
