Greetings All:

I just pulled this design off the paper and made it recently...I named it the Big Woods Utility/Hunter. I don't usually make flat ground hunters with a swedge so I stuck "Utility" in front of the name. :D The front of the high-ride sheath was lined with deer skin to protect the knife blade from the snap, ala Paul Long. Speaking of snaps, I recently switched over to Skovish military grade line 24 snaps. I'm really pleased with the quality and finish on this brand - highly recommended.

8 1/4" OAL, 4" BL, .135" mirror finish CPM-154, spine thumb serrations, red liners on a tapered tang, zero ground swedge - a real light in the hand slicer. This one's on its way to an outdoorsman in Portland, Oregon. All comments welcome.

Good looking knife, I like those serrations you put on it. I'm sure the hunter getting this one will be happy.
 
Same here Tim, You make some fine blades and it's always a pleasure as well too see them my friend.
 
Thanks fellas - I appreciate the kind words. :)
 
Great looking knife TK, that rams horn is sweet. Lined sheath is that something new for you?

Thanks a lot Scott. Every once in awhile I'll line a sheath - dresses it up just a tech. :)
