Here is one that was made for a repeat customer. A guy who bought a similar skinner from me 5 years ago, one that was made with files and sand paper, wanted one for his son. He specified royal blue for the handle, which, paired with brass tube, turned out really nice. The blade is .153 thick AEBL ht by Peters' to 60-61RC. Measures .015 behind the edge and has a gentle convex on a full flat grind.

It's hard to tell in my crappy pictures but the handle is fully sculpted. The blade was satin finished to 600 grit.

Very cool and realistic knife.
