A little backstory on this knife...
So I'm lucky enough to be able to attend BeckerWest every 6 months and share a fire with Mr. Siegle. We always look forward to his box of goodies.
So Bill gets his table all set up and he starts laying down knives. I saw KingMC pick the EDC up out of the corner of my eye and when he set it down I swooped in and immediately bought it.
I ended up carrying and almost exclusively using it for the entire gathering. I carried it cross draw and have comfortably ever since.
Unfortunately my phone was dead for most of the gathering so I didn't get any action shots of it then but I made up for it when I got home.
Here's a link to Bill's original thread for all the specs and such...

Here it is with some other knives for size comparison.
Bill's kydex work is very underrated, this is a great sheath and absolutely no rub marks on the blade at all, it's pretty much perfect.
Very comfortable knife for its size.
It's a hunk of 5160 at 3/16" for a knife that small but Bill tapered at nicely. It leaves the handle nice and hand filling and the blade slicy like an 1/8" knife. I could really do the fine work with the greatest of easy with no real hand fatigue at all.
Playing around...
I needed fire...
Bill I love this knife and really hope you make a run of these so other people can enjoy one as much as I have. Just an absolute homerun of a design! Thanks again Bill!

I really like this design and hope to make some more in the near future. It was crazy fast how fast you snagged this one! Glad you didn't hurt yourself
