Burly Boot Knife

I just got this one finished. Its blade is 5160, the fittings are Nickle/Silver, and the wood is premium Ironwood Burl. I made the handle very slim, so I domed the pins for some added texture.

Very nice Lin - is it sharp on both sides?

Thanks guys. Bailey, actually the closeup makes it appear a little stouter (is that a word?) than it really is. It's almost dainty

Roger, I did not take the clip to an edge. I wanted to be able to see just a little flat on it. Its close, but not sharp.

Really nice Lin, great design and great "putting it all together" in one great little package, somebody's going to be happy with that one!

I like this knife about as much as any of the smaller knives that I have seen. Very nice.

I don't particularly like most fixed blades, but I must say, that is a nice knife.
