Is that a full flat grind?

It's full flat with a convex secondary grind. That combination makes a very good bushcrafter and the grinds are flawless. When the tweeners come out I plan to convex mine. That's a beauty you've got there! Mine's just green canvas micarta.

When I saw Moose's, it was over for me. Had to have one.
 
Moose, a big thanks for taking your time to post these shots and the "play by play" commentary of what sounds like a great show. I know, myself included, that a lot of us wished we could have been there with you, but some things in life make your choices for you.
Congrats on the new knives & other secret gear you got, glad everyone got home safe and sound . . . . . well, at least safe . . . . . . . . . :D
Be safe buddy.

They're great knives man. I've got this huge hankering for one of their ScaatyCrafter's, $295 for the one I want though. Gonna be a week or two I guess.

Full size workhorse, and a maverick colt. Or a frontier first. Yeah, all of those. :D

Great shots moose. Glad to see that you had a lot of fun; you do good stuff here on these boards and you deserve good times.
 
Oregon, that's a beautiful knife. What is the wood on the handle?
I recently put curly maple on a couple little knives and it has that cool striation, but yours is so much darker and more vivid.

Thank goodness someone understands!
 
If you guys like the Bushcrafter you should try the PLSK-1. It's nothing short of awesome. If I could have one outher primary knife outside of my BK9 that would be it. The Kydex/Leather sheaths are sweet too. I got to handle a Bushcrafter next to Daves PLSK-1 when I was at the Pathfinder School. PLSK-1 is the bomb! I probably would like a PLSK-2 as well, but haven't seen one of those yet. Blind Horse makes great stuff. I was about to go all in and save up for one of the 3 afore mentioned knives, but a custom set of handles and a custom sheath and a few tweaks here nad there and I fell in love with my Beckers again. Thinking I need a spare '9 now for that sheath....

Did you by chance get to check out Halibus Bush Tools?

I checked into Halibut, pretty unique design. I think I'll keep them in the front of my mind next time I go spending.
 
I really like the look of the Habilis Bushtools.. I was hoping there would be some good pics of them. I really need to try and get some time to attend this next year.
