I have been working on this knife for two days and it is almost ready for HT.
This is the second of this style I make but it has already some interesting modifications, like the more ergonomic handle, an edge that keeps curving up and also the much more acute tip.
I have been mostly making short knives and these big ones are still something new to me, but the more I work, the more I like it, except for the fact that they really get me tired on the grinder.

Ivan, you need to eat more Chourico! :p ...all kidding aside, i like that blade profile...be sure to post a pic of it when your finished
 
I'm liking that one Ivan. Enough of this work and your arms will adjust. ;) Just be sure to switch sides once in a while or you'll look off balance. :D
 
Chouriço?! Arhg! While I liek our traditional food a lot - I like most any traditional food, and non-traditional food too, by the way - chouriço is not something I appreciate. I much prefer a cow´s tongue "al sugo".
I am working with another maker to try to make this model ins small batches. It this idea works out - and we will know it next week - I`ll be able to off er a very high qaulity version of it for a more than reasonabile price.
 
good luck with it Ivan,it should do well for you...cool design! lingua de Vaca! damn... your hardcore! :p
 
Hello, David

I am tuning this knife for excelent performance as a camp knife and as a competition knife as well.
The first one was an outstanding chopper but this one offers much more blade control and a more useable tip.
