John I'm so glad I went to you for my first custom. Folks I live in Detroit thus the reason for the 9 inches. Not sure if my other comments posted but it's like Andy was reading my mind on just what k inns do knife I had in visioned . Awesome design. Awesome craftsman. Plus I am bias John and I are both manufacturing engineers . This knife will be seeing a ton of corn fed Midwest white tail and plenty of walleye
