All the talk of the "skinner" recently reminded me of this small forged piece made for me by ABS master smith Al Dippold years ago. As I recall, the wood is ash sourced from his farm in Missouri. A very lightweight piece, appropriate as a neck knife, pocket fixed blade or on the belt.

Green Thumb is one of my favourite designs, and this one never sold so I figured I'd get some practical experience with it. I'm loving it!
