So I recently picked this up. Really interesting blade, would not be surprised if Ethan has never seen it before. If I were a betting man I would bet this is something mikey had cooked up. Has the standard eagle sheath from blackjack. It had nothing under the handles like some of the blackjack beckers do. Ill try to put some better photos up later.

Dang man, where do you find this stuff!?
That's a huge choil. I kinda like the shape over all.
Would that be an 8.5? Maybe one of the prototypes pre helicopter egress tool that we all know and love.
 
I'm with Slice, where the hell do you find this stuff?
 
I think thats one of the BK-8 prototypes. It was a knife by committee by my understanding and turned out about exactly how one would expect a knife by committee to turn out.
 
ill get some specs soon. For now ill just say its .25" thick!

How did I get it? ...Mike made me do unmentionable things... haha

Its not a bk8 proto. bk8 was from camillus this is made by blackjack.

I have some theories about how this came to be ill share with some better photos later.
 
I like the blade shape. The line-cutter gut hook was probably some contact spec requirement.

The large choil, while not particularly offensive to me is interesting to say the least.
