Pit, you know that I'm not usually big on your wide-bladed stuff, but this...this reminds me of a crocodile--hefty, powerful, and elegant in its element. Which would be cutting stuff up . I like it, sir!

Thanks buddy, it does look a little mean eh !

i'd try making the curved porting of the edge 1" longer, and the straight section 1" shorter. just move the point where the belly starts closer to the handle and don't make the tip too pointy.

and perhaps .25" off the height of the grip area, same curves, just not so stout. well, perhaps smooth out the transitions at both ends of the scales, just a little too chopped off and abrupt right now.

just suggestions. i usually like my lines a little more fluid, unless they're intentionally not.

i'm drawing an adjustment tool for something else right now and trying to source a specific size of thick walled aluminum tubing and some other parts for it. it's about as un-knife like as you can get. anyone know a source for 2.5" x 3.5" rectangular aluminum tube with .25" thick walls?
