I'm in love with some straight back knives lately. That looks cool, as do the walnut scales.
 
Walnut is something I have bugged John about for some time and to finally see them up close is very nice. My new favorite JK handle material now!

Nuts......yes......tree..... Yes.

Beautiful knife, I love the walnut!!! Also one of my favorite woods. Great design, another winner in my book.
 
Walnut is my favorite flavor too. My last three JK's are sporting walnut scales.

For anyone who ever thought 3/32-inch thick knives are not good for wood splitting!

Nice pictures and knife:thumbup: And I thought I wanted a clip point??? Now I can't make up my mind:confused:
 
I think I lik the straight back better than the regular kephart.

This blade style would look good on a scout, Jr.
