Nice, congrats on the first fixed blade, should be handy in the kitchen or camp site, maybe use if for a fillet knife.

Thanks for the feedback, hadn't thought of a fillet knife. It is from 1/16" stock so it's thin and flexes well enough. Walter

Maybe not long enough for a fillet knife, but could do the job.

Loving this knife, just simple perfection!

Thanks, jeffsenpai. I'm just starting out and wanted to do something simple.

It really reminds me a knife I used to de-flesh a Tule Elk some years ago.

That is wild! I've never done anything close to that before, cool picture.
