Is this one you actually ground? Looks like a larger version of the sawblade knife, so I'm guessing this one isn't a kit knife. Glad to see the absence of the photoshopped logo on the blade though. Actually doesn't look like a bad design. What sort of price are you going to offer this model for?
 
Made entirely by me - no waterjet on this first one. Thanks for your comment.

ps My blade stamp should arrive this week
 
I like it. The handle looks like it will have a good feel, and I dig the mild clip point on the blade. That 5/32 stuff looks like it takes a scandi just fine. I tried some 3/16 and it was just too thick....need to get some 5/32 and play with it. Nice work.
 
Chainring,

I was going to try 3/16 - thanks for the tip. I am going to stop the bevel before it reaches the handle area on the next one.
 
I'll send you a chunk of this 3/16 01 to try out - I sure don't know what to do with it now! PM me your address and I'll mail it to you Monday. Guess I need to try flat or convex grinding next if I wanna go much thicker. Gonna order up a couple pieces of the 5/32 Monday, too.
 
looks good - reminds me of a Leuku profile.
I really like the handle - looks comfy.
 
I like it, looks like it could take some hard use. Oh yeah, I posted those pics you wanted in the shop talk section. Did you see them?
