Clocker,
Have you seen the mini-axis? You can, at
www.knifecenter.com
It is pretty sweet. I will definitely be getting one (maybe two) of those! Anyway, I think I read somewhere around here (or maybe it was "Equipped to Survive") that it was going to be 3" in length. The picture on knifecenter looks like it isn't going to be a recurve like the 710.
